Song lyrics:

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 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
HEROES OFTEN FAIL

AND YOU WON'T
READ THAT BOOK AGAIN
BECAUSE THE ENDING'S
JUST TOO HARD TO TAKE

I 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 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
THE STORY ALWAYS ENDS

IF YOU READ BETWEEN THE LINES
YOU'LL KNOW THAT I'M JUST
TRYIN' TO UNDERSTAND
THE FEELIN' THAT YOU LEFT

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
