If you could read my mind love |
|
What a tale my thoughts could tell |
|
Just like an old time movie |
|
About a ghost from a wishin' 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, you can see |
|
If I could read your mind love |
|
What a tale your thoughts could tell |
|
Just like a paperback novel |
|
The kind the drugstore sells |
|
When you reach the part where the heartaches |
|
Come the hero would be me |
|
Heroes often fail |
|
And you won't read that book again |
|
Because the endings 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 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 feelings 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 |
|
About a ghost from a wishing well |
|
In a castle dark or a fortress strong |
|
With chains upon my feet the story always ends |
|
If you read between the lines |
|
You'll know that I'm just trying to understand |
|
The feelings that you lack |
|
I never knew 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 feelings gone and I just can't get it back |
