On the corner of main street Just trying 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 Breaking 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 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 Waiting on some sign I pull up to the front of your driveway With magic soaking 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 you don't mind Cause I don't shine if you don't shine Before you go Tell me what you find when you read my mind Slipping 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 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
