If You Could Read My Mind - Diana Krall (戴安娜•克瑞儿)/Sarah McLachlan (莎拉·麦克拉克兰)

Written by：Gordon Lightfoot

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 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 ** stores sell

When you reach the part

Where the heart aches come

The hero would be me

The heroes often fail

And you won't read that book again

'Cause the ending's

Just too hard to take

I walk away

Like a movie star

Who gets burned in a three way script

Enter number two

A movie queen

To play the scene

Are 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

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 wishing well

In a castle dark

Or a fortress strong

With chains upon my feet

The stories always end

And if you read between the lines

You'll know that I'm just trying to understand

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
