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? 

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, 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 

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 
Oh well 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
