If You Come Back (8 Jam Streetmix)

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 see If I could read your mind, love What a tale your thoughts could tell Just like a paperback novel The kind that drugstores sell When you reach the part Where the heartaches come The hero would be me The hero often fails You won't read that book again Because the ending's just too hard to take I'll walk away like a movie star Who gets burned in a three-way script Enter number two A movie queen who played a scene Of bringing all the good things out in me But for now love, let's be real I never thought I could act this way And I've got to say, 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 The story always ends If you could read between the lines You'll know that I'm just trying to understand The feelings that should 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 The feeling's gone and I just can't get it back
