[00:00.00]If You Could Read My Mind
[00:03.74]Don Williams
[00:05.08]
[00:09.63]If you could read my mind love,
[00:13.34]What a tale my thoughts could tell
[00:17.41]Just like an old time movie,
[00:21.34]Bout a ghost from a wishin well
[00:25.52]In a castle dark or a fortress strong
[00:30.54]With chains upon my feet,
[00:34.88]You know that ghost is me.
[00:38.78]And I will never be set free,
[00:42.86]As long as I'm a ghost you cant see.
[00:51.91]If I could read your mind love,
[00:55.81]What a tale your thoughts could tell
[00:59.76]Just like a paperback novel,
[01:04.12]The kind the drugstore sell
[01:07.93]When you reach the part
[01:10.64]Where the heartaches come
[01:12.92]The hero would be me,
[01:17.47]Heroes often fail
[01:21.22]And you won't need that book again,
[01:25.24]Because the endings just too hard to take.
[01:30.29]--- Instrumental ---
[01:46.20]I'd walk away like a movie star
[01:51.14]Who gets burned in a freeway script,
[01:55.57]Enter number two
[01:59.41]A movie queen to play the scene,
[02:03.37]Of bringing all the good things out in me
[02:08.87]But for now love lets be real,
[02:13.38]I never thought I could act this way
[02:16.92]And Ive got to say that I just dont get it
[02:21.95]I don't know where we went wrong
[02:25.23]But the feelins gone and I just cant get it back.
[02:38.16]If you could read my mind love,
[02:42.25]What a tale my thoughts could tell
[02:46.32]Just like an old time movie,
[02:50.25]Bout a ghost from a wishin well
[02:54.33]In a castle dark or a fortress strong
[02:59.37]With chains upon my feet,
[03:03.61]The story always ends
[03:07.73]And if you read between the lines
[03:11.45]You'll know that I'm just tryin to understand
[03:17.70]The feelings that you lack
[03:21.65]I never thought I could feel this way
[03:25.11]And I've got to say that I just don't get it.
[03:30.20]I don't know where we went wrong
[03:33.41]But the feelins gone and I just cant get it back
