[00:01.28] An Innocent Man
[00:03.06] Billy Joel
[00:04.27]
[00:10.15] Some people stay far away from the door
[00:14.07] If there's a chance of it opening up
[00:19.33] They hear a voice in the hall outside
[00:23.40] And hope that it just passes by
[00:28.48] Some people live with the fear of a touch
[00:32.05] And the anger of having being a fool
[00:37.57] They will not listen to anyone
[00:41.02] So nobody tells them a lie
[00:44.63]
[00:46.92] I know you're only protecting yourself
[00:51.20] I know you're thinking of somebody else
[00:55.36] Someone who hurt you
[00:57.29] But I'm not above making up all the love
[01:01.72] You've been denying you can ever feel
[01:07.11] I'm not above doing anything
[01:10.72] To restore your faith, if I can
[01:14.19]
[01:16.36] Some people see through the eyes of the old
[01:19.86] Before they ever get a look at the young
[01:25.71] I'm only willing to hear you cry
[01:28.96] Because I am an innocent man
[01:32.77]
[01:40.53] I am an innocent man
[01:48.32] Oh yes I am
[01:51.17]
[01:58.98] Some people say they will never believe
[02:02.39] Another promise they hear in the dark
[02:07.96] Because they only remember too well
[02:11.42] They heard somebody tell them before
[02:17.07] Some people sleep all alone every night
[02:20.59] Instead of taking a lover to bed
[02:26.21] Some people find that's easier
[02:29.69] To hate than to wait anymore
[02:33.51]
[02:35.45] I know you don't wanna hear what I say
[02:39.59] I know you're gonna keep turning away
[02:43.37] But I've been there and if I can survive
[02:47.94] I can keep you alive
[02:50.16] I'm not above going through it again
[02:55.22] I'm not above being cool for a while
[02:58.87] If you're cruel to me, I'll understand
[03:02.58]
[03:04.51] Some people run from a possible fight
[03:07.81] Some people figure they can never win
[03:13.28] And although this is a fight I can lose
[03:16.70] The accused is an innocent man
[03:20.66]
[03:28.51] I am an innocent man
[03:35.39] Oh yes I am an innocent man
[03:43.46]
[03:46.34] You know you'll only hurt yourself out of spite
[03:50.36] I guess you'd rather be a martyr tonight
[03:57.24] That's your decision
[03:58.42] But I'm not below anybody I know
[04:02.85] If there's a chance of resurrecting a love
[04:08.11] I'm not above going back to the start
[04:11.52] To find out where the heartache began
[04:16.80]
[04:17.30] Some people hope for a miracle cure
[04:20.59] Some people just accept the world as it is
[04:25.93] I'm not willing to lay down and die
[04:29.22] Because I am an innocent man
[04:33.60]
[04:40.84] I am an innocent man
[04:47.83] Oh yes I am an innocent man
[04:56.81] Ohhhhooh
[05:01.89]
