Gunther Neefs - if you could read my mind lyrics

<b>if you could read my mind</b> by <i>Gunther Neefs</i><br />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 that 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 drug stores 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 too 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 al 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 tot 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

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 al the good things out in me,

But now ----- let's be real

I never thought I could feel this way and I've got tot 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
