Honest Man

Lyrics

[Verse 1] From mountain lakes to the dusty valleys I've carried these secrets for wrong or right But I'm tired of wandering cold and empty With no one to share my nights My mind's been playing tricks so cruel A mirage, an illusion, until there was you So I tell you I can love you like a spy And the truth almost sounds like a lie [Chorus] But I wouldn't lie to you I've got nothing to hide from you Wherever you are, I'll be beside you Because that's where I stand And I'll be your honest man (He'll be your honеst man) [Verse 2] I know we come from differеnt places And sometimes that distance can seem too much But we can put smiles on hopeful faces All we have to do is touch And these separate towns full of lonely hearts Suddenly won't feel so far apart When the old way of things no longer applies Then the truth almost sounds like a lie [Chorus] But I wouldn't lie to you I've got nothing to hide from you Wherever you are, I'll be beside you Because that's where I stand And I'll be your honest man (He'll be your honest man) [Interlude] [Verse 3] Take you down to a quiet border Where promises mourn and whispers swarm We'll watch the stars fall out of order Like wishes being born The sky is big and the morning light Comes across so bright, it almost burns your eyes It's the place where all good rumors go to die And the truth almost sounds like a lie [Chorus] But I wouldn't lie to you I've got nothing to hide from you Wherever you are, I'll be beside you Because that's where I stand And I'll be your honest man (He'll be your honest man) [Outro] I'll be your honest man
