[Verse 1]
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 is a happy state of mind

[Chorus]
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?
(Mm-hm), Mm-hm (Mm-hm), Mm-hm (Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
And who's to say anyway that love is not a game we play
Why is it always gotta be considered a condition of the heart?
(Mm-hm), Mm-hm (Mm-hm), Mm-hm-hm (Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
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

[Outro]
You've put me in a happy state of mind
Lovin' you is a happy state of mind
Havin' you is a happy state of mind
Don't take away my happy state of mind
