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
Honest - y is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue-ue
Honest - y 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
Honest - y is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue-ue
Honest - y 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, whoa, whoa ohhh
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 turn?
Cause you're the one that I depend upon
Honest - y is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honest - y is hardly ever heard
But mostly what I need from you-
