If I could only read your mind
Tell me the answer I would find
Do you dream of me?
And when youre smiling in your sleep
Beyond the promises we keep
Do you dream of me?
Love has found a magic space
A deep and hidden place where time stands still
Now I hold you in my arms
You know you hold my heart and always will
Excellent lyrics t...
Reminds me of a wonderful song by a good songwriter/singer from
Canada......Gordon Lightfoot....
His best songs for me was ´Rainy Day People ´ and
´The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald´ but many many others prefer his first letter
to a special girl.....His words are so very powerful
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 wishing well.
In a castle dark or a fortress strong,
With chains upon my feet.
You know that ghost is me.
And I will never be set free
As long as I´m a ghost that you can´t see.
If I could read your mind, love,
What a tale your thoughts could tell.
Just like a paperback novel,
The kind the drugstores sell.
Then you reached the part where the heartaches come,
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.
I´d walk away like a movie star
Who gets burned in a three way script.
Enter number two:
A movie queen to play the scene
Of bringing all the good things out in me.
But for now, love, let´s be real;
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 feeling´s gone
And I just can´t 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 wishing well.
In a castle dark or a fortress strong.
With chains upon my feet.
But stories always end,
And if you read between the lines,
You´d know that I´m just 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.
I don´t know where we went wrong,
But the feelin´s gone
And I just can´t get it back.
