Read My mum
If you could
read my mind, love

W hat a tale

my thoughts could tell
In a castle dark
Ora fortress strong

W ith chains

up on my feet
And Iwill never

be set free

as long as I'm a ghost

that you can't see
If I could read
your mind love

W hat a tale

your thoughts could tell
Just like a

paper back novel

The kind

the drug stores sell
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
Instrumental 15 Seconds
I'd walk away
Like a movie star

W ho gets burned

in a three way script
A movie queen
to play the scene

of bringing all the

good tlungs out 1n me
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

W hat a tale

my thoughts could tell
Just like an old
time movie

'Bout a ghost

from a Wishng well
In a castle dark
Ora fortress strong

W ith chains

up on my feet
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
and Ijust can't

get it back
