Honesty~ Billy Joel

Honesty- Lyrics

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 truthfullness, 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 hard
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

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 nothing While I'm gone
But When I want sincerity
Tell me where else can I turn
Because You're the one that I depend upon
