If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts could tell?
Just like an old time movie
'Bout a ghost from a wishing well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me
I will never 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 paperback novel
The kind the drugstores sell (ooh)
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 ending's just too hard to take
ย
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 lets 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
ย
If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thoughts could tell?
Just like an old time movie
'Bout 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'd know that I'm just trying to understand
The feeling 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
Ooh, ooh
