Bill Anderson Happy State of Mind Lyrics

 

Maybe I don't love you quite as much

As I believe I love you, baby

But don't tell me 'cause lovin' you's

A happy state of mind.

Maybe I don't need you quite as much

As I profess to need you, baby

But don't leave me needin' you's

A happy state of mind.

And who's to say anyway

That love is not a game we play

Why's it always gotta be considered

A condition of the heart. hmm hmm

As long as I feel warm inside

Wanted, filled and satisfied

Who am I to be denied this feelin'

Be it love or be it just a happy state of mind.

Maybe it's just something I've imagined

In the hours when I'm sleepin'

But don't wake me cause dreamin's

A happy state of mind.

Maybe I just gotta have somebody

And you're close and you're somebody

But don't leave me, you've put me in

A happy state of mind.

And who's to say anyway

That love is not a game we play

Why's it always gotta be considered

A condition of the heart. hmm hmm

As long as I feel warm inside

Wanted, filled and satisfied

Who am I to be denied this feelin'

Be it love or be it just a happy state of mind.

You've put me in a happy state of mind

Lovin' you's a happy state of mind

Havin' you's a happy state of mind

Don't take away my happy state of mind...
