If You Could Read My Mind

If You Could Read My Mind - Lorena

Written by：Gordon Lightfoot

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 wishing well

In a castle dark or a fortress strong

With chains upon my feet

You know that ghost is me

I don't know where we went wrong

But the feeling's gone

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 could tell

Just like a paperback novel

The kind the drugstores sell

When you reach the part where the heartaches come

The hero would be you

Heroes often fail

Never thought I 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 feeling's gone

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 would tell

Just like an old time movie

'Bout a ghost from a wishin' well

If you could read my mind love

What a tale my thoughts would tell

Just like a paperback novel

The kind that drugstores sell

When you reach the part

Where the heartaches come

The hero would be you

Heroes often fail

Never thought I 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 feeling's gone

And I just can't get it back

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

Yeah

If you could

Read

Read my mind yeah
