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.
