Baby, do you understand me now
If some times you see that I get mad
Don't you know, know what I like
Can always be an angel
If things go wrong you see some bad
I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Baby, sometimes I get so carefree
With a joy that is hard to find
Then again it seems like all I got to do worry
You turned me around and show me the other side
I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
If I seem edgy I want you to know
That I never meant to take it all of you
Everybody got problems
I've got more than my share
One thing ,one thing, one thing
I want you to understand me, baby
Little girl, you must know by now
I love you only
I never have thoughts about any other woman
Sometimes I found myself alone regreting , yeah
Some foolish things, some simple things I've done
I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Little girl, in my darkest hours, you are the one
You come along and you stood beside me
Lord, I still feel your fingertips upon my forhead
Make me stay, don't run away, baby
Stay beside me, baby
I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Yeah man, you asked for water
