If You Could Read My Mind

歌词

[Verse 1]
If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie
'Bout a ghost from a wishin' well
[Pre-Chorus 1]
In a castle dark, or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me
[Chorus 1]
And I will never be set free
As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see
[Verse 2]
If I could read your mind love
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind that drugstores sell
[Pre-Chorus 2]
When you reach the part, where the heartaches come
The hero would be me
But heroes often fail
[Chorus 2]
And you won't read that book again
Because the ending's just too hard to take
[Pre-Chorus 3]
I'd walk away, like a movie star
Who gets burned in a three way script
Enter number two
[Chorus 3]
A movie queen to play the scene
Of bringing all the good things out in me
[Post-Chorus 3]
But for now love, let's be real
[Bridge 1]
I never thought I could act this way
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feelin's gone, and I just can't get it back
[Verse 1]
If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie
'Bout a ghost from a wishin' well
[Pre-Chorus 4]
In a castle dark, or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
But stories always end
[Chorus 4]
And if you read between the lines
You'll know that I'm just tryin' to understand
[Post-Chorus 4]
The feelin's that you lack
[Bridge 2]
I never thought I could feel this way
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feelin's gone
And I just can't get it back
