Lyrics

0:06Baby you understand me now
0:11If sometimes you see I'm mad
0:17Doncha know that no one alive can always be an angel
0:24When everything goes wrong you see some bad
0:29Well I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
0:36Oh lord please don't let me be misunderstood
0:47Ya know sometimes baby I'm so carefree
0:53With a joy thats hard to hide
0:59Then sometimes it seems again that all I have is worry
1:06And then you burn to see my other side
1:11But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
1:18Oh lord please don't let me be misunderstood
1:27If I seem edgy
1:28I want you to know
1:31I never meant to take it out on you
1:38Life has its problems
1:41And I get more than my share
1:43But thats me one thing I never mean to do
1:47Cos I love you
1:50Oh baby
1:53I'm just human
1:56Don't you know I have faults like anyone
2:02Sometimes I find myself alone regretting
2:06Some little fooling thing
2:09Some simple thing that I've done
2:13I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
2:20Oh lord please don't let me be misunderstood
2:29I try so hard
2:31So don't let me be misunderstood
Baby you understand me now
If sometimes you see I'm mad
Doncha know that no one alive can always be an angel
When everything goes wrong you see some bad
Well I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord  please don't let me be misunderstood
Ya know sometimes baby I'm so carefree
With a joy thats hard to hide
Then sometimes it seems again that all I have is worry
And then you burn to see my other side
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord  please don't let me be misunderstood
If I seem edgy
I want you to know
I never meant to take it out on you
Life has its problems
And I get more than my share
But thats me one thing I never mean to do
Cos I love you
Oh baby
I'm just human
Don't you know I have faults like anyone
Sometimes I find myself alone regretting
Some little fooling thing
Some simple thing that I've done
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord  please don't let me be misunderstood
I try so hard
So don't let me be misunderstood
