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
You don't mind
Cause I don't shine
If you don't shine
Before you go
Can you read my mind?
Its funny how you just break down
Waitin' 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
The 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
He 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
