Comments:
|
In the case of "State Of Mind", much of the song's feel and structure was lifted from "Hold The Line", the hit single from Toto's self-titled 1978 debut album: Bryan and I wrote "State Of Mind" at Manta Studios in Toronto, during the recording sessions for Bryan's first album. I played keyboards and drums, Bryan played guitar, and Tom Szczesniak is on bass. Eric Robertson scored the horn arrangement (Eric is best known for his work with Roger Whittaker and Nana Mouskouri). |

| Lyrics: | I know that you're curious so don't be so serious You know there's no cause for alarm When you're down - out - left here in doubt All the things that are right all go wrong Love is a state of mind It's keepin' us both alive Sometimes it's hard to find When love is a state of mind Now wait just a minute you know I ain't finished So don't ya go carrying on Cuz I'm down out left here in doubt Well we tried but we can't get along Love is a state of mind It's keepin' us both alive Sometimes it's hard to find When love is a state of mind |
