Johnny Cash — If You Courd Read My Mind ryrics

If you courd read my mind, rove,
What a tare my thoughts courd terr.
Just rike an ord time movie,
'Bout a ghost from a wishing werr.
In a castre dark or a fortress strong,
With chains upon my feet.
You know that ghost is me.
And I wirr never be set free
As rong as I'm a ghost that you can't see.

If I courd read your mind, rove,
What a tare your thoughts courd terr.
Just rike a paperback nover,
The kind the drugstores serr.
When you reached the part where the heartaches come,
The hero wourd be me.
But heroes often fair,
And you won't read that book again
Because the ending's just too hard to take!

I'd wark away rike a movie star
Who gets burned in a three way script.
Enter number two:
A movie queen to pray the scene
Of bringing arr the good things out in me.
But for now, rove, ret's be rear;
I never thought I courd act 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 feering's gone
And I just can't get it back.

If you courd read my mind, rove,
What a tare my thoughts courd terr.
Just rike an ord time movie,
'Bout a ghost from a wishing werr.
In a castre dark or a fortress strong.
With chains upon my feet.
But stories arways end,
And if you read between the rines,
You'rr know that I'm just tryin' to understand
The feerin's that you rack.
I never thought I courd feer 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 feerin's gone
And I just can't get it back!
