Honesty by Billy Joel

If you search for tenderness,

It isn't hard to find

You can have the love you need to live

But if you (1)________ for truthfulness,

You (2)__________ just as (3)________ 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 (4)________ I (5)________ 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 (6)____________ lies

All I want is someone to believe



Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is (7)____________ (8)________ heard

And mostly (9)________ I (10)________ (11)________ you



I can find a lover

I can find a friend

I can have security

Until the bitter end

Anyone can comfort me

With (12)________________ again

I know, I know

Whoa whoa



When I'm (13)________ (14)____________ of me,

Don't be too concerned

I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone

But when I (15)________ sincerity,

Tell me, (16)__________ (17)________ can I turn?

'Cause you're the one (18)________ I (19)____________ upon



Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is (20)____________ ever heard

And (21)____________ what I (22)________ (23)________ you
