I've been sitting on my bed
With a glass on my hand
Tryin' to figure out
a way for me to understand
Through this
talk we've just had
The questions I have asked
somebody yesterday
About the sign
that's in your eyes
About the biggest smile
Or your facing away
Questions I have asked
somebody how you feel
Only eyes reveal
Your answer's not for real
But I can't read your mind
Not this time
I just wanna know
what you're going through
I don't feel wrong
about asking you
But I can't read your mind
Not this time
I just wanna know
what you're going through
I don't feel wrong
about asking you
But I can't read your mind
Not this time
There are times when
you don't wanna say
That there are problems
in your head that
you can't explain
I have been that way
Baby there's a hug
or a kiss or two
But not forever do
If only I'd reach you
But I can't read your mind
Not this time
I just wanna know
what you're going through
I don't feel wrong
about asking you
But I can't read your mind
Not this time
I just wanna know
what you're going through
I don't feel wrong
about asking you
I can't read your mind
Not this time
Maybe I'm a child
Maybe I'm a woman
Maybe I am old
Maybe I said something
Reasons to push me away
Maybe I have laughed
Maybe I have cried
But never did I try
To put hurt on your side
But I can't read your mind
Oh not this time
I just wanna know
what you're going through
I don't feel wrong
about asking you
I can't read your mind
Not this time
I just wanna know
what you're going through
I don't feel wrong
about asking you
I can't read your mind
this time
I can't read your mind
Not this time no
Not this time
No
Not this time
can't read your mind
Oh not this time
