Krall, Diana - If You Could Read My Mind Lyrics
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
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
When you reach the part where the heartaches come
The hero would be me
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 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 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 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
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

BEAUTIFUL VOICE
This is the best cover I’ve heard for this song.
Jesus....I must be going thru manopaus !!I'm sitting here getting all teary eyed. This is the 4th cover I listened to. Cash, from the sound track of 54 and Neil. The others didn't make me cry...dammit !!
Omg! Just found this version by accident. I’d never heard it before and it’s just drop dead spectacular. I am for ever in love with Gordon’s original but this is definitely my favorite cover of all times.
"If You Could Read My Mind"...
When you reach the part where the heartaches come
The hero would be me
But heroines often fail
And you won't read that book again
Because the ending is just too hard to take......
A truly great lyric.
Best cover of this song that I've ever heard. By the way, it's my favorite song of all time.
They might as been singing a Christmas song , they gloss over all the poignant parts. The feeling that was lacked was them
Brilliant xx
Who are the 5 nitwits who gave this song a thumbs down? I recommend a Justin Bieber site for the morons.
A lot of Canadian talent here! Diana Krall from Nanaimo, BC on the west coast and Sarah McLachlan from Halifax, NS on the east coast singing a song by Gordon Lightfoot from
Ontario. 🇨🇦
She's a rare person who can bring the right feel to this Lightfoot classic, other than the master Gordon.
Nicely constructed with the lyrics and the singer’s photo overlaid. Hope to see more of your work!
Wow this is a very nice version....
2 kraljice... Bravo
Haunting, memories, the past..
Wow! When the two voices come together in harmony - superb arrangement of an excellent song!
Two of my favourite singers, beautiful.
