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 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 Im a ghost that you cant see |
|
If I could read your mind love |
|
What a tale your thoughts could tell |
|
Just like a paperback novel |
|
The kind that drugstores sell |
|
When you reach the part where the heartaches come |
|
The hero would be me |
|
But heroes often fail |
|
And you wont read that book again |
|
Because the endings just too hard to take |
|
|
|
Id 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 Ive got to say that I just dont get it |
|
I dont know where we went wrong |
|
But the feelins gone |
|
And I just cant get it back |
|
|
|
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 wishin well |
|
In a castle dark or a fortress strong |
|
With chains upon my feet |
|
But stories always end |
|
And if you read between the lines |
|
Youll know that Im just tryin to understand |
|
The feelins that you lack |
|
I never thought I could feel this way |
|
And Ive got to say that I just to get it |
|
I dont know where we went wrong |
|
But the feelins gone |
|
And I just cant get it back |
