Honesty

If you search for tenderness
It isn't hard to find
You can have the love
You need to live

But 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
Everyone is so untrue

Honesty
Is hardly ever heard
And 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
Everyone is so untrue

Honesty
Is hardly ever heard
And 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

When I'm deep inside of me
Don't be too concerned
I won't ask for nothin'
While I'm gone

But when I want sincerity
Tell me where else can I turn
When you're the one that I depend upon

Honesty
Is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue

Honesty
Is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you
