Best Intentions Songtext

von Russell Hitchcock

(George Merrill/Shannon Rubicam)
I am not what I seem to be
I mean no harm
I'm not a fake
There's a world alive inside of me
Got a heart that beats
And eyes that see
So don't tune out this frequency
[Chorus]
Best intentions don't guarantee
Only love will set you free
Makes no difference long as you live and breathe
Like you, like me
If I believe only what I see
I kiss the dark
I am the thief
Stealing light from all of us in need
Causing grief
Ignorant conceit
So show me love, give me some relief
[Chorus]
I came from nowhere like this city street
Everybody's walkin' to a lonely beat
I don't know what they're saying
But I know what they mean
And all their good intentions
Will only chain and fetter me
Take me home
To where I want to be... free
Free.like you, like me, like you, free
[Chorus]
