If You Could Read My Mind
If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts would 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 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, yeah
If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like a paperback novel, the kind that drugstores sell
When you reach the part where the heartache comes, the hero would be you
Heroes often fail
Never thought I'd 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 feeling's gone and I just can't get it back
If you could read my mind
If you could, if you could (oh yeah)
If you could read my mind (if you could read)
If you could (my mind), if you could (yeah)
If you could read my mind
If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like an old time movie 'bout a ghost from a wishing well
If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like a paperback novel, the kind that drugstores sells
And when you reach the part where the heartache comes, the hero would be you
Heroes often fail
Never thought I'd 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 feeling's gone and I just can't get it back
If you could, if you could (oh yeah)
If you could read my mind (if you could read my mind)
If you could, if you could (yeah)
If you could read my mind
If you could, if you could (oh yeah)
If you could read my mind (if you could read my mind)
What a tale my thoughts would 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 don't know where we went wrong

If you could read my mind, yeah
If you could read my mind, love
