An Innocent Man Lyric | Billy Joel |  |  | GREATEST HITS VOLUME III |  |
| | | | |
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
I know you're only protecting yourself I know you're thinking of
somebody else 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 if I can
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 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
taking a lover to bed Some people find that it's easier to hate Than to
wait anymore
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 I've not above being
cool for a while If you're cruel to me I'll understand
Some people run
from a possible fight Some people figure they can never win 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
resurrecting a love I'm not above going back to the start To find out
where the heartache began
Some people hope for a miracle cure Some
people just accept the world as it is But I'm not willing to lay down and
die Because I am an innocent man
I am an innocent man Oh yes I
am An innocent man
