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 might just as well be blind

It (2)____________ seems to be so hard to give



Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly (3)________ heard

And mostly what I need from you



I can always find someone

To say (4)________ sympathize

If I wear my heart out on my sleeve

But I don't want some pretty face

To (5)________ me pretty lies

All I want is someone to believe



Honesty is (6)________ 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

Whoa whoa



When I'm deep inside of me,

Don't be too concerned

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

But (7)________ I want sincerity,

Tell me, (8)__________ else can I turn?

'Cause you're the one (9)________ I depend upon



Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And mostly what I need from you
