Текст песни Gordon Lightfoot - If You Could Read My Mind
Gordon Lightfoot - If You Could Read My Mind слова песни
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 that 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 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 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 feelin`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 tryin` 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 feelin`s gone
And I just can`t get it back
