Lyrics for Honesty as interpreted by kevin

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 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 nothin' while I'm gone
But when I want sincerity
Tell me where else can I turn
Because you're the only one that I depend on

Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you

This song is amazing. I heard a live version of this song first, and I thought it was great, but hen I heard the studio version, and it just blew me away. Billy's voice in this one is actually a bit relaxing.

I've come across many comments all over this site, in which the poster says "this or that is my favourite song ever" and you sympathize a bit: "Ah, not bad at all, right"
But I find myself now at the moment I must confess: the first ten notes of this song are -to me- the open doors to heaven. Really. So much. Good, great, marvellous are plain dirty rags on the holy skin of a goddess. Then: This is my favourite song ever.
