Song lyrics:
IF YOU COULD
READ MY MIND, LOVE
WHAT A TALE
MY THOUGHTS COULD TELL
JUST LIKE AN OLD-TIME MOVIE
'BOUT A GHOST
FROM A WISHIN' WELL
IN A CASTLE DARK
OR A FORTRESS STRONG
WITH CHAINS UPON MY FEET
YOU KNOW THAT GHOST IS ME
AND I WILL NEVER BE SET FREE
AS LONG AS I'M A GHOST
THAT YOU CAN SEE
IF I COULD
READ YOUR MIND, LOVE
WHAT A TALE
YOUR THOUGHTS COULD TELL
JUST LIKE A PAPERBACK NOVEL
THE KIND THE DRUGSTORES SELL
WHEN YOU REACH THE PART
WHERE THE HEARTACHES COME
THE HERO WOULD BE ME
HEROES OFTEN FAIL
AND YOU WON'T
READ THAT BOOK AGAIN
BECAUSE THE ENDING'S
JUST TOO HARD TO TAKE
I WALK AWAY
LIKE A MOVIE STAR
WHO GETS BURNED
IN A THREE-WAY SCRIPT
ENTER NUMBER TWO
A MOVIE QUEEN
TO PLAY THE SCENE
OF BRINGING ALL THE
GOOD THINGS OUT IN ME
BUT FOR NOW, LOVE
LET'S BE REAL
I NEVER THOUGHT
I COULD ACT THIS WAY
AND I'VE GOT TO SAY
THAT I JUST DON'T GET IT
I DON'T KNOW
WHERE WE WENT WRONG
BUT THE FEELING'S GONE
AND I JUST CAN'T GET IT BACK
IF YOU COULD
READ MY MIND, LOVE
WHAT A TALE
MY THOUGHTS COULD TELL
JUST LIKE AN OLD-TIME MOVIE
'BOUT A GHOST
FROM A WISHIN' WELL
IN A CASTLE DARK
OR A FORTRESS STRONG
WITH CHAINS UPON MY FEET
THE STORY ALWAYS ENDS
IF YOU READ BETWEEN THE LINES
YOU'LL KNOW THAT I'M JUST
TRYIN' TO UNDERSTAND
THE FEELIN' THAT YOU LEFT
I NEVER THOUGHT
I COULD FEEL THIS WAY
AND I'VE GOT TO SAY
THAT I JUST DON'T GET IT
I DON'T KNOW
WHERE WE WENT WRONG
BUT THE FEELING'S GONE
AND I JUST CAN'T GET IT BACK
Very nice rendition! From a guy who was inspired by Gordon Lightfoot for decades. Thank you, Zoom! RIP Gordon LightFoot 5-2-23
At least y'all didn't mess up the lyrics! Another channel somehow thought "part" was "park" and "fail" was "fake".
Finally a respectable useable track for pros.
Love this song. Always good work with amazing karaoke versions.
Who's here watching this on Tuesday May 2nd 2023 )the day after the *TERRIBLE* mews of Gordon Lightfoot's passing?
Sing it for Gordon
I will be singing this one in his honor tonight at karaoke night... Maybe I will also sing Sundown because I love that song.
Best version
RIP... ❤
I just found out 😢 RIP Gordon. 1:26
Thanks!
Thanks very much for your support.
Wow
Dumb question
Why is it that you people that create karaoke music think that I want you singing along with me?
The whole idea is I'm trying to to figure out how I sound
If I want to sing along with a singer I'll sing along with the original song not your copy
What you guys do makes no sense and you're not the only one
We don’t create karaoke songs to cater to your individual requirements.
This is not karaoke there needs to be NO two-part harmony kills it!
Why put lead vocalist tracks on? They are that out of tune it's like listening to another song.
They are no lead vocals, it’s a two-part harmony. It’s not out of tune, it’s a harmony.
@@SledgeHammered It is the same harmony that Gordon sung on the original. I have just sang along to it and it's right. Might have to do a demo video to prove it!
@@ZoomKaraokeOfficial I've just sang along. The harmonies are fine. Some people can't sing to harmonies.
As somebody who sang as a lead tenor and soloist for over 25 years, I can tell you that the harmonies you added in are fine and in keeping with the original.
Actually, I was very pleased to hear that you put them in, as (usually) they’re just edited out (along with the lead vocals) on most karaoke tracks.
Lyrics are wrong and incoherent in some spots. Sorry, no go. Move on. Karaoke videos #1 priority: get words right!
Can you give some examples?
