Baby, do you understand me now And sometimes you see a little mad Can always be an angel When every things goes wrong you seem to be bad I'm just a soul who's intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood Sometimes I'm so carefree With a joy that's hard to hide Most of the time I'm so full of worry And then you're bound to see my other side I'm just a soul who's intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood If I seem edgy, I want you to know I never mean to take it out on you Life has it's problems and I've got in more my share And that's one thing I never mean to do 'cause I love you baby I'm just human Have thoughts like any one Sometimes I think I spend the rest of my life regretting Some simple thing that I have done (x4) I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
