If You Could Read My Mind

Lyrics
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 around my feet You know that ghost is me And I will never be set free As long as there's a ghost that you can't see If I could read your mind, love What a tale your thoughts would tell Just like a paperback novel The kind of drugstore sell When you reach the part where the heartaches comes The hero would be me But heroes often fail And you won't read that book again Because the ending's just too hard to take And I 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 And I don't know where we went wrong But the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back If you could read my mind, love What a tale my thoughts could tell
