Well, I can't believe all the things that I've begun to do Friends say I let them down And messed around I guess it's true With my derelict heart l play my part so well But I'm afraid my masquerade has begun to tell Well I, used to be a level headed guy But now I can't think straight no matter how I try Chorus I'm an innocent, try to understand I'm an innocent, victim of a thing called love I'm an innocent, try to understand I'm an innocent, victim of a thing called love Every night I'm not there, you wonder where I am How can I explain something I don't understand Well it seem s to you I'm so calm and so content But here inside I'm an emotional wreck
