If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie
That goes for my wishing well
In a castle dark, or a fortress strong
You know that God steals me
I don't know where we went wrong
and I just can't get it back
If you could read my mind, yeah
If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind the drugstore sells
When the heartache comes,
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
and I just can't get it back
If you could read my mind
If you could, if you could
If you could read my mind
If you could, if you could
If you could read my mind
If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts are scorching
Just like an old -time movie
But it goes for my wishing well
If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind the drugstore sells
Where the heartache comes
Never thought I'd feel this way
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
and I just can't get it back
If you could, if you could
If you could, if you could,
if you could read my mind
