POETIC EDITION. SONG: HONESTY. BY BILLY JOEL

If you are looking for tenderness and approval,
that's not hard to get and it has its price,
but, you can not always sincerely find,
all the love and equity that the heart needs.

But, if you are looking for honor, nobility and fidelity,
You could also be just deaf and blind,
because the truth always seems so hard,
especially if it's about the "friend".

"Honesty" is such a lonely word,
unfortunately almost all are so false,
Honesty is hardly ever heard,
And above all, it's what I need on a daily basis.

I can always find someone,
to say that he sympathizes with me,
but, if I leave my heart out of my chest,
How many stabs do I expect and from whom?

But, I do not want to have a pretty mermaid from the sea,
to tell us trite lies,
I want is someone to believe in,
friend to trust and woman to love.

"Honesty" is such a lonely word,
Why are almost everyone so good at lying?
For honesty, I would give my life if necessary,
and above all, it is what I need most from you.

I can easily find a lover,
I can hardly get a true friend,
I can believe having security until the bitter end,
when the sad and painful betrayal kills me.

Anyone can comfort me,
with promises, compliments and kisses again,
but, it's you I love to love me,
I know, I want to ask you until my old age.

When I am in the depth of my being,
I ask with the soul to get involved too,
unite my mind and heart, with you woman,
is the only thing that I demand, for myself.

If you do not accept, I will not ask for anything while I'm leaving,
When I want sincerity I understand nothing,
tell me, where else can I turn to see today?
If you are the only one on whom I depend.
