[00:09.80]Some people stay far away from the door
[00:13.10]If there's a chance of it opening up
[00:19.00]They hear a voice in the hall outside
[00:22.60]And hope that it just passes by
[00:28.00]Some people live with the fear of a touch
[00:31.70]And the anger of having been a fool
[00:37.20]They will not listen to anyone
[00:40.30]So nobody tells them a lie
[00:46.20]I know you're only protecting yourself
[00:50.70]I know you're thinking of somebody else
[00:55.00]Someone who hurt you
[00:56.30]But I'm not above making up for the love
[01:01.00]You've been denying you could ever feel
[01:06.70]I'm not above doing anything
[01:10.00]To restore your faith if I can
[01:15.70]Some people see through the eyes of the old
[01:19.10]Before they ever get a look at the young
[01:24.80]I'm only willing to hear you cry
[01:28.20]Because I am an innocent man
[01:39.50]I am an innocent man
[01:47.30]Oh yes I am
[01:52.10]
[01:58.20]Some people say they will never believe
[02:02.00]Another promise they hear in the dark
[02:07.30]Because they only remember too well
[02:10.40]They heard somebody tell them before
[02:16.10]Some people sleep all alone every night
[02:19.80]Instead of taking a lover to bed
[02:25.30]Some people find that it's easier to hate
[02:29.70]Than to wait anymore
[02:34.30]I know you don't want to hear what I say
[02:38.70]I know you're gonna keep turning away
[02:42.90]But I've been there and if I can survive
[02:46.60]I can keep you alive
[02:49.00]I'm not above going through it again
[02:54.30]I've not above being cool for a while
[02:57.80]If you're cruel to me I'll understand
[03:03.40]Some people run from a possible fight
[03:06.70]Some people figure they can never win
[03:12.40]And although this is a fight I can lose
[03:15.60]The accused is an innocent man
[03:26.80]I am an innocent man
[03:34.40]Oh yes I am
[03:39.00]An innocent man
[03:44.90]You know you only hurt yourself out of spite
[03:49.10]I guess you'd rather be a martyr tonight
[03:55.60]That's your decision
[03:56.80]But I'm not below
[03:59.30]Anybody I know
[04:01.30]If there's a chance of resurrecting a love
[04:06.90]I'm not above going back to the start
[04:10.10]To find out where the heartache began
[04:15.60]Some people hope for a miracle cure
[04:18.90]Some people just accept the world as it is
[04:24.85]But I'm not willing to lay down and die
[04:28.00]Because I am an innocent man
[04:39.10]I am an innocent man
[04:46.30]Oh yes I am
[04:50.70]An innocent man
[04:54.80]
