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 

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]

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 
Because 
You're the one 
That I depend upon 

[Chorus]
