Intro
Verse 1
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 I'm A Ghost That You Can't See
Verse 2
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 Won't Read That Book Again, Because The Ending's Just Too Hard To Take
Break
Bridge
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
Chorus
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 Feelin's Gone And I Just Can't Get It Back
Break
Verse 3
If You Could Read My Mind Love, What A Tale My Thoughts Could Tell
(Oo'ooh)Just Like An Old Time Movie,(Oo-Ooh)'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, You'll Know That I'm Just Tryin' To Understand
The Feelin's That You Left
Chorus
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 Feelin's Gone And I Just Can't Get It Back
