If you could read my mind love
What a tale my thought could tell
Just like an old-time movie
About 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 and 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 thought could tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind the drugstores sell

Then you reached 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 to hard to take
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

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 feeling's gone and I just can't 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 wishing 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'd know that I'm just tryin' to understand
The feelin'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 feelin's gone
And I just can't get it back
