honesty (live in moscow & leningrad, russia - july/august 1987) - billy joel lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
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

[chorus]
“honesty” is such a lonely word
everyone is so untrue
honesty is hardly ever heard
and mostly what i need from you

[verse 2]
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

[chorus]
“honesty” is such a lonely word
everyone is so untrue
honesty is hardly ever heard
and mostly what i need from you
[bridge]
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…

[verse 3]
so 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?
’cause you’re the one that i depend upon

[chorus]
“honesty” is such a lonely word
everyone is so untrue
honesty is hardly ever heard
and mostly what i need from you

[outro]
ok
this next song, is different than the song before
the other song was about honesty
this song i made up is a total lie
listen, i always wanted to write a western movie soundtrack
ok?
i always liked music like a theme from “the magnificent seven”
[main title and calvara jam]
but n0body offered to give me a movie to write a score to
so i made up my own movie
