- Complete Greatest Hits
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 you can't see. 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 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 just 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 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 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 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 trying 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 feeling's gone and I just can't get it back
