[00:09.98] Some people stay far away from the door
[00:13.48] If there's a chance of it opening up
[00:19.34] They hear a voice in the hall outside
[00:23.15] And hope that it just passes by
[00:25.65]
[00:28.33] Some people live with the fear of a touch
[00:31.94] And the anger of having being a fool
[00:34.88]
[00:37.63] They will not listen to anyone
[00:40.87] So nobody tells them a lie
[00:44.12]
[00:46.92] I know you're only protecting yourself
[00:51.24] I know you're thinking of somebody else
[00:53.92]
[00:55.53] Someone who hurt you
[00:57.10] But I'm not above making up all the love
[01:00.97]
[01:01.53] You've been denying you can ever feel
[01:04.08]
[01:07.14] I'm not above doing anything
[01:09.51]
[01:10.64] To restore your faith, if I can
[01:13.57]
[01:16.32] Some people see through the eyes of the old
[01:19.00]
[01:19.86] Before they ever get a look at the young
[01:22.74]
[01:24.93] I'm only willing to hear you cry
[01:27.99]
[01:28.93] Because I am an innocent man
[01:31.00]
[01:40.49] I am an innocent man
[01:46.11]
[01:48.17] Oh yes I am
[01:49.36]
[01:58.96] Some people say they will never believe
[02:02.77] Another promise they hear in the dark
[02:05.08]
[02:08.14] Because they only remember too well
[02:11.45] They heard somebody tell them before
[02:17.13] Some people sleep all alone every night
[02:20.38] Instead of taking a lover to bed
[02:23.31]
[02:26.18] Some people find that's easier
[02:29.67] To hate than to wait anymore
[02:32.67]
[02:35.42] I know you don't wanna hear what I say
[02:39.41] I know you're gonna keep turning away
[02:43.97] But I've been there and if I can survive
[02:47.58] I can keep you alive
[02:49.76] I'm not above going through it again
[02:55.38] I'm not above being cool for a while
[02:58.75] If you're cruel to me, I'll understand
[03:04.37] Some people run from a possible fight
[03:07.55] Some people figure they can never win
[03:10.61]
[03:12.86] And although this is a fight I can lose
[03:16.60] The accused is an innocent man
[03:20.66]
[03:28.27] I am an innocent man
[03:33.32]
[03:35.69] Oh yes I am an innocent man
[03:41.87]
[03:45.93] You know you'll only hurt yourself out of spite
[03:50.36] I guess you'd rather be a martyr tonight
[03:53.10]
[03:56.97] That's your decision
[03:58.28] But I'm not below anybody I know
[04:02.53] If there's a chance of resurrecting a love
[04:08.14] I'm not above going back to the start
[04:11.32] To find out where the heartache began
[04:17.19] Some people hope for a miracle cure
[04:20.18] Some people just accept the world as it is
[04:25.93] I'm not willing to lay down and die
[04:29.36] Because I am an innocent man
[04:32.48]
[04:40.65] I am an innocent man
[04:47.89] Oh yes I am an innocent man
[04:56.32] Ohhhhooh
