Billy Joel - An Innocent Man Meaning

Song Released: 1983
An Innocent Man Lyrics
If there's a chance of it opening up
They hear a voice in the hall outside
And hope that it just passes by.
Some people live with the fear of a touch
And the anger of having been a fool.

I'm an innocent man and i'm a great guy i'm not going to break you i'm not a man slut i'm a guy that will respect you.

This song is a plea to give love a second (or third or fourth or...) chance.
The narrator is telling a girl, "I can see you've had your heart broken before. Maybe many times before. Other men have hurt you... but I'M not one of those guys. I'VE never hurt you, and I'VE never given you any reason to distrust me. I understand why you're skeptical and suspicious now, and I'm willing to take things slowly. But I want you to take a chance on me, because love is worth it."
