an innocent man
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 ii just passes by
Some people see through the eyes of the old
Before they ever get a look at the young
I'm only willing to hear you cry
Because I am an innocent man
[Chorus]
I am an innocent man
Oh, yes I am
Some people sleep all alone every night
Instead of taking a lover to bed
Some people find that it's easier to hate
Then to wait anymore
[Bridge]
I know you don't want to hear what I say
I know you're gonna keep turning away
But I've been there
And if I can survive I can keep you alive
I'm not above going through it again
And although this is a fight I can lose
The accused is an innocent man
[Chorus]
I am an innocent man
Oh, yes I am
An innocent man''
OOOO
