If You Could Read My Mind — текст песни (Michael Ball)

(g. lightfoot) campbell connelly & co.



If you could read my mind, love

What a tale my thoughts would tell

Just like an old-time movie

Out 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 Im a ghost that you cant see





If I could read your mind, love

What a tale your thoughts would tell

Just like a paperback novel

That kind the drugstores sell

When you reach the part

Where the heartache comes

The hero would be me

The heroes often fail

You wont read that book again

Because the endings just too hard to take





Id walk away like a movie star

Who gets spurned in a three-way script

Enter number two

The movie queen to play the scene

And bringing all the good things out in me

But for now, love, lets be real





Chorus:

I never thought I could feel this way

And I got to say that I just dont get it

I dont know where we went wrong

But the feelings gone

And I just cant get it back...





If you could read my mind, love

What a tale my thoughts would 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

Stories always end

And if you read between the lines

You know that Im just trying to understand

The feelings that you lack





Chorus





If you could read my mind, love...
