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 wishing well. In a castle dark, Or a fortress strong, with chains around my feet. You know that ghost is me, And I will never be set free, As long as there?s a ghost that you can't see. If you could read my mind, love, What a tale your thoughts would tell. Just like a paperback novel, The kind the drugstores sell. When you reached the part Where the heartaches come, the hero would be me. But heroes often fail. And you won't read that book again, Because the ending's just too hard to take. I'd walk away Like a movie star, who gets burned in a three-way script. Enter number two: A movie queen to play the scene Of bringing all the good things out in me But for now, love, let's be real. 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 feeling's gone, and I just can't get it back. 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 wishing well. In a castle dark, Or a fortress strong, with chains upon my feet. But stories always end If you read between the lines Tou?ll know that I?m just trying to understand The feelings that you lack 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 feeling's gone, and I just can't get it back. fade
