If You Could Read My Mind

[00:09.16] If you could read my mind love
[00:12.61] What a tale my thoughts could tell
[00:16.48] Just like an old time movie
[00:20.27] About a ghost from a wishin' well
[00:24.69] In a castle dark or a fortress strong
[00:29.01] With chains upon my feet
[00:33.31] You know that ghost is me
[00:38.22] And I will never be set free
[00:41.19] As long as I'm a ghost, you can see
[00:50.06] If I could read your mind love
[00:53.52] What a tale your thoughts could tell
[00:57.33] Just like a paperback novel
[01:01.65] The kind the drugstore sells
[01:05.10] When you reach the part where the heartaches
[01:09.31] Come the hero would be me
[01:14.54] Heroes often fail
[01:18.01] And you won't read that book again
[01:22.04] Because the ending's just too hard to take
[01:29.54]
[01:42.62] I'd walk away like a movie star
[01:47.47] Who gets burned in a three way script
[01:51.71] Enter number two, a movie queen
[01:57.03] To play the scene of bringing
[02:01.02] All the good things out in me
[02:04.83] But for now love, let's be real
[02:09.11] I never thought I could act this way
[02:12.94] And I've got to say that I just don't get it
[02:17.98] I don't know where we went wrong
[02:20.90] But the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back
[02:28.39]
[02:33.98] If you could read my mind love
[02:37.58] What a tale my thoughts could tell
[02:41.85] Just like an old time movie
[02:45.44] About a ghost from a wishing well
[02:49.49] In a castle dark or a fortress strong
[02:54.04] With chains upon my feet, the story always ends
[03:02.31] If you read between the lines
[03:05.89] You'll know that I'm just trying to understand
[03:11.95] The feeling that you lack
[03:15.92] I never thought I could feel this way
[03:19.42] And I've got to say that I just don't get it
[03:24.34] I don't know where we went wrong
[03:27.58] But the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back
[03:32.94]
