If You Could Read My Mind sing and play along

If you could read my mind,

love, what a tale my thoughts could tell.

Just like an old per 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 thoughts could tell.

Just like a old per time novel,

the kind ghost the a drug stores sell.

Then you reached the part

where the heartaches come, the hero would be me.

But heros 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 threeway 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 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.

feet. But stories always end,

and if you read between the lines,

you'd know that I'm just tryin' to understand the feelin's 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 feelin's gone and I just can't get it back!
