If you search
for tenderness
it isn't hard to find
You can have the love
you need to live
And if you
look for truthfulness
you might
just as well be blind
it always seems to be
so hard to give
Honesty
is such a lonely word
Ev'ryone is so untrue
Honesty
is hardly ever heard
but mostly what
I need from you
I can always
find someone
to say they
sympathize
if I wear my heart
out on my sleeve
But I don't want
some pretty face
to tell me pretty lies
All I want is someone
to believe
Honesty
is such a lonely word
Ev'ryone is so untrue
Honesty
is hardly ever heard
but mostly what
I need from you
I can find a lover
I can find a friend
I can have security
until the bitter end
Anyone can comfort me
with promises again
I know (I know)
I know wo wo
When I'm deep
inside of me
don't be too
concerned
I won't ask
for nothing
while I'm gone
When I want sincerity
tell me
where else can I true
'Cause you're the one
the one that
I depend upon
Honesty
is such a lonely word
Ev'ryone is so untrue
Honesty
is hardly ever heard
but mostly what
I need from you~
