I'm a Mess Lyrics

I'm a mess

I should be filling rooms

with the sweet smell of success

I'm a mess, look at what I've been reduced to

I don't blame you for saying no

when you should have answered yes

But darling, darling, darling,

look at me now

I'm a mess



I'm a mess, I'm a wreck, I'm really on the deck

I'm a mess, look at how I'm living

Some of these days I'm gonna get back on my feet

and quit this blue address

But darling, darling, darling,

look at me now,

I'm a mess



The smart set I used to run around with

are invisible now

They all cut me loose when one said that

what I've got might just rub off on them somehow

I'm a mess for want of your caress

Darling, darling look at me now, I'm a mess
