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

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 I could read your mind, love.

If I could read your mind, love

What a tale your thoughts could tell

Just like a paperback novel

The kind the drugstores sell.

When you reach the part where the heartaches come

The hero would be you

Heroes often fail.

Never thought I'd fell 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

If you could read my mind.

If you could

If you could

If you could read my mind.

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.

If I could read your mind, love

What a tale your thoughts could tell

Just like a paperback novel

The kind the drugstores sell.

When you reach the part where the heartaches come

The hero would be you

Heroes often fail.

Never thought I'd fell 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

If you could read my mind.

If you could

If you could

If you could read my mind.
