When You Read My Mind

Notes from Joel:

Ever notice how certain things are engrained in your mind? Scenes from your past- sometimes good things, sometimes things you may be ashamed of - get permanently burned into the memory. God's word says to set your mind on things above - good things... "Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things." Phil 4:8 Watch your eyes and your minds - keep them pure.

Recorded at Coyote Run Studios in spring of 1990. Released later that summer on the Wisdom Street project.

Credits: Joel Weldon - Lead vocal, guitars, bass, background vocal; Timothy Jones - Drums, percussion; Craig Bidondo - Keyboards; Steve Mills - Background vocals; Chris Merkling - Background vocals

When You Read My Mind

Moving pictures fill the screen when I close my eyes
Sometimes so real, sometimes a dream that I play inside
I can build my thoughts around anything
Either foundations weak or strong
But from you I can't hide a single thing
Because you see it all

chorus
When you read my mind
What does it say, what do you find there?
When my thoughts unwind
Reflections of you I pray they will be there
When you read my mind

A man is made of what he thinks in his heart of hearts
What he denies, what he allows is the crucial part
Ideas clamor for position
Good and evil trying to take the stage
It's a battle that I can't win alone
Need you to write every page

chorus

Moving pictures fill the screen when I close my eyes. . . . .
