But the feelings gone and I just can't get it back
I don't know where we went wrong
I'd walk away like a movie star
What a tale my thoughts could tell
About a ghost from a wishin' well
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
If you read between the lines
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
Just like an old time movie
I never thought I could act this way
To play the scene of bringing
As long as I'm a ghost, you can see
You know that ghost is me
All the good things out in me
And I will never be set free
But for now love let's be real
I never thought I could feel this way
Just like a paperback novel
Come the hero would be me
The kind the drugstore sells
Because the endings just to hard to take
When you reach the part where the heartaches
With chains upon my feet
What a tale your thoughts could tell
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
If you could read my mind love
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
Heroes often fail
Who gets burned in a three way script
The feeling that you left
You'll know that I'm just trying to understand
Just like an old time movie
If I could read your mind love
Enter number two, a movie queen
With chains upon my feet the story always ends
I don't know where we went wrong
And you won't read that book again
About a ghost from a wishing well
