If you could read my mind, love, what a tale my thoughts could tell Just like and o-old time mo-ovie 'bout 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 won't ever 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 paper back novel, the kind the drug store sells When you reach 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 too 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 f bringing all the good things out in 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 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 and o-old time mo-ovie 'bout a ghost from a wishing well In a castle dark, or a fortress strong, with chains upon my feet Girl, but stories always end If you could read between the lines you'd know that I'm just tryin' to understand The feeling'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 feelings gone and I just can't get it back
