If You Could Read My Mind - Gordon Lightfoot[00:00:00]
If you could read my mind love[00:00:11]
What a tale my thoughts could tell[00:00:14]
Just like an old time movie[00:00:18]
'Bout a ghost from a wishin' well[00:00:22]
In a castle dark or a fortress strong[00:00:26]
With chains upon my feet[00:00:31]
You know that ghost is me[00:00:35]
And I will never be set free[00:00:39]
As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see[00:00:43]
If I could read your mind love[00:00:51]
What a tale your thoughts could tell[00:00:55]
Just like a paperback novel[00:00:59]
The kind that drugstores sell[00:01:02]
When you reach the part where the heartaches come[00:01:07]
The hero would be me[00:01:12]
But heroes often fail[00:01:16]
And you won't read that book again[00:01:20]
Because the ending's just too hard to take[00:01:23]
I'd walk away like a movie star[00:01:50]
Who gets burned in a three way script[00:01:53]
Enter number two[00:01:56]
A movie queen to play the scene[00:01:58]
Of bringing all the good things out in me[00:02:01]
But for now love let's be real[00:02:07]
* I never thought I could ACT this way *[00:02:10]
And I've got to say that I just don't get it[00:02:15]
I don't know where we went wrong[00:02:18]
But the feelin's gone[00:02:22]
And I just can't get it back[00:02:24]
If you could read my mind love[00:02:36]
What a tale my thoughts could tell[00:02:39]
Just like an old time movie[00:02:43]
'Bout a ghost from a wishin' well[00:02:46]
In a castle dark or a fortress strong[00:02:51]
With chains upon my feet[00:02:55]
But stories always end[00:02:59]
And if you read between the lines[00:03:03]
You'll know that I'm just tryin' to understand[00:03:07]
The feelin's that you lack[00:03:13]
I never thought I could feel this way[00:03:17]
And I've got to say that I just don't get it[00:03:21]
I don't know where we went wrong[00:03:26]
But the feelin's gone[00:03:29]
And I just can't get it back[00:03:31]
