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 no-ovel, 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 ju-ust too hard to take



I'd walk away like a movie star who gets bur-urned in a three way script

Enter number two

A movie queen to play the scene f bringing all the goo-ood 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 ju-ust 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
