Once upon a lonely time, though not so long ago
You used to be a superstar, you used to steal the show
But now you got to be satisfied singin' on the street
And watch the world go passin' by, that once was at your feet

Baby don't let it mess your mind
Sadness ain't a feelin' that becomes you
Baby don't let it mess your mind
Remember life will always love you

In and out of circles, all the time we seem to waste
To make our plans and find that all our plans have been erased
We had a little money and we made a little time
But soon we'll grow forgetful of what we left behind

Baby don't let it mess your mind
Sadness ain't a feelin' that becomes you
Baby don't let it mess your mind
Remember life will always love you

Baby don't let it mess your mind
Sadness ain't a feelin' that becomes you
Baby don't let it mess your mind
Remember life will always love you

Baby don't let it mess your mind
(Baby don't, don't you let it mess with your mind)
Sadness ain't a feelin' that becomes you
Baby don't let it mess your mind
(Baby don't, baby don't, don't you let it mess with your mind)
Remember life will always love you
Baby don't let it mess your mind
(Baby don't, baby don't, don't you let it mess with your mind)
Sadness ain't a feelin' that becomes you
Baby don't let it mess your mind
(Baby don't, baby don't, don't you let it mess with your mind)
