If You Could Read My Mind

Gordon Lightfoot

[Verse 1: Diana Krall]
If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old-time movie
About a ghost from a wishin' 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

[Verse 2: Sarah McLachlan]
If I could read your mind, love
What a tale your 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 me
But heroes often fail
And you won't read that book again
'Cause the ending's just too hard to take

[Verse 3: Diana Krall, Sarah McLachlan, Diana Krall & Sarah McLachlan]
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 act this way
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

[Verse 4: Diana Krall, Sarah McLachlan, Diana Krall & Sarah McLachlan]
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
With chains upon my feet
But stories always end
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
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
