Honest Man

(album: Matters Of The Heart - 2019)

I grew so tired of a one-way love
But I knew what I was doing
I put all my time into the wrong ones
Yeah, I chose to give my soul to boys that couldn't feed it
Chose to go down roads I knew were misleading
But all that I've done has led me to you

'Cause you mean what you say
You say what you mean
You know how to love
Unselflessly
And for a while I forgot
What's important to me
But you got it

I finally found, I finally found
An honest man
He won't let me down, he don't mess around, no
An honest man
And, oh, what a difference it makes
To put my heart into something that won't break
I finally found, I finally found
An honest man

Love used to feel so shallow
But I knew what I was doing
Oh, it just left me so hollow
But with you, you take the burdens that leave me so tired
You bring out my best and keep me inspired
And all that you've done is the living proof

I finally found, I finally found
An honest man
He won't let me down, he don't mess around, no
An honest man
And, oh, what a difference it makes
To put my heart into something that won't break
I finally found, I finally found
An honest man

'Cause you say what you mean
And mean what you say
You are who you are
Nothing that I would change
And when I forget what's important to me
You show it

I finally found, I finally found
An honest man
He won't let me down, he don't mess around, no
An honest man
And, oh, what a difference it makes
To put my heart into something that won't break
I finally found an honest man
I finally found, I finally found
An honest man
