Baby, you understand me now?

If sometimes you see that I'm mad

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good,

oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.

You know sometimes, baby, I'm so carefree,

and then you're bound to see my other side.

oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.

If I seem edgy I want you to know

Oh baby, I'm just human,

Sometimes I find myself alone regretting

oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.
