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 nothing while I'm gone.
But when I want sincerity
Tell me where else I can turn.
Because you're the one I depend upon.
