Beyonce - 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

[Chorus:]
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

[Chorus]

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 one
That I depend upon

[Chorus]

  9. L.... M....

    tune OK it's important hahaha

  10. b.... p....

    hallo beyonce.. ur sweety girl

  11. C.... M....

    It's not bad...but the original just has so much more passion

  12. f.... b....

    cute but sad

  13. a.... l....

    i sudennly remember to the past when i was young (2003)...with Adriana Kusuma Wardani (uke) in bandung

  14. E.... C....

    I don't actually like the song, but i love the meaning and the words.

  15. D.... D....

    <3 LOVE IT

  16. R.... S....

    i aint just luv the song, I luv his pretty voice as well ... but I preffer hear Billy Joel version, indeed !

    R.... S....

    Ricky Satria His??😂

  17. M.... K....

    I agree.

  18. M.... K....

    @Sturgeonstairway I agree.

  19. M.... K....

    i don't like it.

    M.... K....

    Marilyne K. Awww😂

  20. s.... ....

    Hmm, ironically she rips every ounce of sincerity out of a very simple but extremely moving song. This just shows that artists like Billy Joel are in a class way, way above the likes of Beyonce.

  21. S.... ....

    No feeling - You can hear the hurt in Billy Joel's version...sorry Beyonce fans.

  22. B.... K....

    Seems like the type of song that would be played at the end of a movie.

  23. A.... L....

    She can sing and has a powerful voice. This isnt bad but it doesnt compare to the original by Mr. Billy Joel and doesnt have the same feeling...

  24. m.... d....

    i love this vídeo

  25. s.... w....

    i think she did a good version, no one can ever touch an original, but for a cover she did a good job

  26. p.... y....

    ooooooooo beyonce ur my barbie dolll

  27. N.... ....

    because she's the only one who covers songs, yeah.

    and i'm pretty sure it's Billy Joel's song.

    learn to spell.


    bitchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  28. M.... ....

    Beautiful , every song you make wonderul , God Given talent youve got

  29. D.... C....

    I love the way she changes that long note in to the word honesty without taking a breath!! too cool lool

  30. x.... ....

    they aren't saying she owns it. Just that the person who made this video doesn't own it.

  31. j.... ....

    this is just a remake right?

  32. L.... V....

    I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé I (L) Beyoncé

  34. N.... G....
