Baby, you understand me now?
If sometimes you see that I´m mad
Don´t you know, no one alive can always be an angel?
When everything goes wrong, you see some bad

But I´m just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don´t let me be misunderstood

You know sometimes, baby, I´m so carefree
With a joy that´s hard to hide
And then sometimes, again, it seems that all I have is worry
And then you´re bound to see my other side

But I´m just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don´t let me be misunderstood

If I seem edgy
I want you to know
I never meant to take it out on all you
Life has its problems
And I get more than my share

But that´s one thing I never mean to do

Cause I love you
Oh baby, I´m just human
Don´t you know I have faults like anyone?
Sometimes I find myself alone regretting
Some little foolish thing
Some simple thing that I´ve done

Cause I´m just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don´t let me be misunderstood

I try so hard, don´t let me be misunderstood
I try so hard, don´t let me be misunderstood
