An Innocent Man lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics An Innocent Man lyrics Some people stay far away from the doorIf there s a chance of it opening up They hear a voice in the hall outsideAnd hope that it just passes by Some people live with the fear of a touchAnd the anger of having been a fool They will not listen to anyoneSo nobody tells them a lie I know you re only protecting yourselfI know you re thinking of somebody else Someone who hurt youBut I m not aboveMaking up for the love You ve been denying you could ever feelI m not above doing anything To restore your faith if I canSome people see through the eyes of the old Before they ever get a look at the youngI m only willing to hear you cry Because I am an innocent manI am an innocent manOh yes I am Some people say they will never believeAnother promise they hear in the dark Because they only remember too wellThey heard somebody tell them before Some people sleep all alone every nightInstead of taking a lover to bed Some people find that it s easier to hateThan to wait anymore I know you don t want to hear what I sayI know you re gonna keep turning away But I ve been there and if I can surviveI can keep you alive I m not above going through it againI ve not above being cool for a while If you re cruel to me I ll understandSome people run from a possible fight Some people figure they can never winAnd although this is a fight I can lose The accused is an innocent manI am an innocent manOh yes I amAn innocent man You know you only hurt yourself out of spite I guess you d rather be a martyr tonightThat s your decisionBut I m not below Anybody I knowIf there s a chance of resurrecting a love I m not above going back to the startTo find out where the heartache began Some people hope for a miracle cureSome people just accept the world as it is But I m not willing to lay down and dieBecause I am an innocent man I am an innocent manOh yes I amAn innocent man song lyrics
