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 look for truthfulness,

You might just as well be blind

It always seems to be so hard to give



Honesty is (1)________ a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And (2)____________ what I (3)________ 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 (4)____________ word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is (5)____________ ever heard

And mostly (6)________ I need from you



I can find a lover

I can find a friend

I can have security

Until the (7)____________ end

Anyone can comfort me

With promises again

I know, I know

Whoa whoa



When I'm deep inside of me,

Don't be too concerned

I won't ask for nothin' (8)__________ I'm gone

But when I want sincerity,

Tell me, where (9)________ can I turn?

'Cause you're the one that I depend upon



Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly (10)________ heard

And mostly what I need from you
