Lyric If you could read my mind

If you could read my mind love, what a tale my thought 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.
You know that ghost is me, and I will never be set free
as long as I m a ghost that you can t see.

If I could read your mind love, what a tale your thought could tell
Just like a paperback novel, the kind the drugstores sell.

Then 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 to 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 of me.

But for now love let s be real I never thougth 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.

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 and if you read between the lines you d know that I m just tryin 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.
