Honest

Lyrics

Oh, I raced headfirst down the old stone road To the bridge outside Kilteel And I held my breath on that frosty morning Dreaming maybe you're still there Now I know in my heart that the original sin Was never showing you my mind 'Fore you crossed that sea, you left this land And left my love behind [Chorus] But my heart's too honest All my colours spilling out 'Cause I know you're all I want, want Have we missed our moment? How could fate be so unfair? 'Cause I know you're all I want, want [Verse 2] Now my father stands in the middle of the road Saying, "Boy, where have you been? You've been out all night chasing dogs and ghosts And this hill has taken down good men" It's been dark so long, she's so damn bright I can barely get myself to leave I don't do this much, no, it's not like me He said, "I know just what you mean" [Chorus] Well, my heart's too honest All my colours spilling out 'Cause I know you're all I want, want (Be honest) Have we missed our moment? (For a moment) How could fate be so unfair? (Be honest) 'Cause I know you're all I want, want [Bridge] (Be honest) Want (For a moment), want (Be honest) 'Cause I know you're all I want, want (Be honest) Want (For a moment), want (Be honest) 'Cause I know you're all I want, want [Outro] I realise now, there's a wolf inside That I dare not try to kill I can change my path, I can learn his heart But I cannot change his will I watch her go, on a long, cold night I expect she'll never leave my mind And I'll walk 'round broken Sceptical, hoping, one day she'll return to my side
