INNOCENT
Some people stay
far away from the
door if there's a chance

of it opening up
They hear a voice
in the hall outside

and hope that it
just passes by
Some people live

With the fear
of a touch
And the anger of

having been a fool
They Will not
listen to anyone

so nobody tells
them a lie

g
Someone Who hurt you
but I'm not above
Making up for the love
you've been denying

you could ever feel
I'm not above

doing anything
to restore your

faith ifI can

g
Some people see

through the eyes
of the 01d
Before they ever

get a look
at the young
I'm only Willing
to hear you cry
because I am

an innocent man

g
I am an
innocent man
Oh yes I am
Some people say

they Will

never believe
Another promise

they hear in the dark
Because they only
remember too well

they heard somebody
tell them before
Some people sleep
all alone every night
instead of taldng a

lover to bed
Some people 13nd
that it's easier to hate
than to wait anymore
I know you don't

want to hear
what I say
But I've been there

and if I can survive
I can keep you alive
I'm not above going

through it again
I'm not above

being cool for
a While
Some people run

from a possible fight
And although this
is a fight I can lose
the accused is

an innocent man
I am an
innocent man
Oh yes I am
An innocent man
You know you

only hurt yourself

out of spite
I guess you'd

rather be a

martyr tonight
That's your decision

But I'm not below
Anybody I know

if there's a chance
of resurreciing a love
I'm not above

going back
to the start
T0 13nd out Where
the heartache began
But I'm not milling

to lay down

and die
Because I am
an innocent man

g
I am an
innocent man
Oh yes I am
Oh oh oh oh
