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