I know that you're curious,
So don't be serious,
You know there's no cause for alarm.


When you're down - out
Left here in doubt,

All the things that are right will go wrong.

Love is a state of mind,

It's keepin' us both alive,
Sometimes it's hard to find.
Love's in a state of mind.


Wait just a minute,
You know that it's finished,

So don't you go carry it on.

Cause I'm down - out

Left here in doubt,
Well, we try but we can't get along.


Love is a state of mind,
It's keepin' us both alive,
Sometimes it's hard to find.

Love's in a state of mind.
