Cat Stevens - Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood lyrics

People, do you understand me now,

If 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 mean to do

I don't mean it

People, don't you know I'm only human

Don't you know I have 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 let me be misunderstood

I'm just someone whose intentions are good

Don't let me be misunderstood,

Don't let me be misunderstood
