Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood Songtext

von Yusuf Islam

People, do you understand me now,
Sometimes I feel a little mad
Don't you know no one alive can always be an angel
When things go wrong I seem a little sad
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

You know sometimes, I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
Sometimes 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,
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has its problems and I get more than my share
But that's one thing I never meant to do
I don't mean it!

People, don't you know I'm only human
Don't you know I've faults like any one
But sometimes I find myself alone regretting
Some little thing, some foolish thing that I have done
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

Don't you let me be misunderstood
I'm just someone whose intentions are good
Don't let me be misunderstood,
Don't let me be misunderstood
