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’ve got the green light
I’ve 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

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
Waiting on some sign
I pull up 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

Well I don’t mind, if you don’t mind
‘Cause I don’t shine if you don’t shine
Before you joke
Tell me what you find
can 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 diamons, cut out of the sun
Can you read my mind
