If You Could Read My Mind 歌词

If you could read my mind, love What a tale my thoughts could tell Just like an old time movie About a ghost in 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 could tell Just like a paperback novel The kind the drugstores sell When you reach the part the hero comes That hero could be me But heroes often fail And you won't read that book again Because the ending is 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 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 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 Just like an old time movie About a ghost in a wishing well In a castle dark or a fortress strong With chains around my feet But stories never end And if you read between the lines You'll know that I'm just trying to understand The feelings that you lack 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 feeling's gone and I just can't get it back
