If You Could Read My Mind (gordon Lightfoot) Lyrics - Kalan Porter

If you could read my mind love 

What a tale my thoughts could tell 

Just like an onld time movie 

'Bout 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 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 paper back 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 If you read between the lines 

You'll know that I'm just trying to understand 

The feelings that you lack 

I never thought I could feel this way 

And I've got to say 

That I just don't get 

I don't know where we went wrong 

But the feelings gone 

And I just can't get it back 

If you could read my mind love 

What a tale my thoughts could tell
