On the corner of main street Just tryin' to keep it in line You say you wanna move on and You say I'm falling behind
Can you read my mind? Can you read my mind?
I never really gave up on Breakin' out of this two-star town I got the green light I got a little fight I'm gonna turn this thing around
Can you read my mind? Can you read my mind?
The good old days, the honest man; The restless heart, the Promised Land A subtle kiss that no one sees; A broken wrist and a big trapeze
Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind 'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine Before you go, can you read my mind?
It's funny how you just break down Waitin' on some sign I pull up to the front of your driveway With magic soakin' my spine
Can you read my mind? Can you read my mind?
The teenage queen, the loaded gun; The drop dead dream, the Chosen One A southern drawl, a world unseen; A city wall and a trampoline
Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind 'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine Before you jump Tell me what you find when you read my mind
Slippin' in my faith until I fall You never returned that call Woman, open the door, don't let it sting I wanna breathe that fire again
She said I don't mind, if you don't mind 'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Put your back on me Put your back on me Put your back on me
The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun When you read my mind
