If You Could Read My Mind/
Come Back To Me

(Lane/Lerner/Lightfoot)


(spoken) Ladies and gentlemen, Liza Minnelli!

La la la, la la la, la la la la la la....
La la la, la la la, la la la la la la....

If you could read my mind, love
What a tale the thoughts could tell
Just like an old-time movie
'Bout a ghost from a wishing well
In a castle dark
Or a fortress strong
With chains upon my feet
Love's a one-way-street

Never thought I could feel this way
And I've gotta say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feeling's gone
And I wanna get it back
Wanna have you he-e-e-e-ear my voice
Where you are
Catch a plane
Steal a car
Hop a freight
Grab a star
Come back to me!

La la la, la la la, la la la la la la....
La la la, la la la, la la la la la la....

If I could read your mind, love
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind the drugstores sell
Then you reach the part
Where the heartache comes
The love that didn't dawn
But memories linger on and on and on and on and on

And have you gone
To the moon
Or the corner saloon
On a rack and a ruin
I don't-a care
This is where you should be!

And I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But that feeling's gone
And I will get it back
Come back to me
Come back to me

La la la, la la la, la la la la la la....
La la la, la la la, la la la la laaaaa....
