If You Would Read My Mind
许冠杰
If You Could Read My Mind
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
You know that ghost is me.
And I will never be set free
As long as I'm a ghost you cant see.
If I could read your mind love
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind the drugstore sell
Where the heartaches come
And you won't need that book again
Because the endings just too hard to take.
I'd walk away like a movie star
Who gets burned in a freeway script
A movie queen to play the scene
Of bringing all the good things out in me
But for now love lets be real
I never thought I could act this way
And Ive got to say that I just dont get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feelins gone and I just cant 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
And if you read between the lines
You'll know that I'm just tryin 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 it.
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feelins gone and I just cant get it back
