[00:04.43] |
If you could read my mind, love |
[00:07.83] |
What a tale my thoughts could tell |
[00:10.88] |
Just like an old-time movie |
[00:14.98] |
'Bout a ghost from a wishin' well |
[00:18.97] |
In a castle dark or a fortress strong |
[00:25.67] |
With chains upon my feet |
[00:28.05] |
You know that ghost is me |
[00:31.67] |
And I will never be set free |
[00:36.06] |
As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see |
[00:42.19] |
If I could read your mind, love |
[00:49.30] |
What a tale your thoughts could tell |
[00:52.36] |
Just like a paperback novel |
[00:57.49] |
The kind the drugstores sell |
[01:00.71] |
When you reach the part where the heartaches come |
[01:05.27] |
The hero would be me |
[01:08.56] |
But heroes often fail |
[01:11.90] |
And you won't read that book again |
[01:16.57] |
Because the ending's just too hard to take |
[01:21.44] |
I'd walk away like a movie star |
[01:29.92] |
Who gets burned in a three-way script |
[01:34.09] |
Enter number two |
[01:37.57] |
A movie queen to play the scene |
[01:42.40] |
Of bringing all the good things out in me |
[01:47.28] |
But for now love, let's be real |
[01:51.09] |
I never thought I could act this way |
[01:55.44] |
And I've got to say that I just don't get it |
[02:00.59] |
I don't know where we went wrong |
[02:03.51] |
But the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back |
[02:08.12] |
If you could read my mind, love |
[02:15.53] |
What a tale my thoughts could tell |
[02:19.72] |
Just like an old-time movie |
[02:23.11] |
'Bout a ghost from a wishin' well |
[02:26.57] |
In a castle dark or a fortress strong |
[02:32.39] |
With chains upon my feet |
[02:35.25] |
But stories always end |
[02:39.30] |
And if you read between the lines |
[02:44.55] |
You'll know that I'm just tryin' to understand |
[02:48.78] |
The feelings that you lack |
[02:52.67] |
I never thought I could feel this way |
[02:57.63] |
And I've got to say that I just don't get it |
[03:01.77] |
I don't know where we went wrong |
[03:05.62] |
But the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back |
