Songwriter: Stephen Duffy Robbie Williams

[Verse 1]
Tryin' to be misunderstood
But it doesn't do me any good
Love the way they smiled at me
Held their face for eternity
Now let them all fly off

[Pre-Chorus 1]
When it comes down
It all comes down
And you will not be found
When it's over, it's all over
Even if I make a sound

[Chorus]
I'll be misunderstood
By the beautiful and good in this city
None of it was planned
Take me by the hand
Just don't try and understand

[Verse 2]
Tryin' to be misunderstood
Just a product of my childhood
And still I find myself outside
You can't say I haven't tried
Perhaps I tried too hard

[Pre-Chorus 2]
No excuses, won't apologise
Or justify your lies
Come find me, tell them to me
Look me in the eyes

[Chorus]
I'll be misunderstood
By the beautiful and good in this city
None of this was planned
Take me by the hand
Just don't try and understand

[Outro]
Can't forgive, sorry to say
You don't know you're guilty anyway
Isn't it funny how we don't speak
The language of love?
