Lyrics

Baby loves him like the 4th of Juy
She is drawn to fireworks, heaven knows why
When all he gives her is the back of his hand
Happiness is hardly in the plan
And she wants to believe nothing's wrrong
But in the blink of an eye her young life could be gone

He's a troubled man
He's a troubled man, Can't she understand
He's a troubled man
He'd like to take control of her very soul now

Baby's taking off in search of some peace
But it's cold and hard out there, she feels no release
She thinks of running back everyday
But a voice inside keeps her away
And she wants to believe he can change
But she knows in her heart to stay well out of range

He's a troubled man
He's a troubled man, Can't she understand
He's a troubled man
He'd like to take control of her very soul
He's a troubled man
He's a troubled man, Can't she understand
He's a troubled man
He'd like to take control of her very soul
He's a troubled man

And she wants to believe she's been freed
But only time and some patience will help her succeed

He's a troubled man
He's a troubled man, Can't she understand
He's a troubled man
He'd like to take control of her very soul
He's a troubled man
He's a troubled man, Can't she understand
He's a troubled man
He'd like to take control of her very soul
He's a troubled man
