Honestly
Lyrics & music by Rick Springfield & Matt Bissonette
Do you look like Cleopatra I don't know what to say Big fake smile and a false apology Soaked up in this big opera And my Mark Antony, oh
Honestly, honestly I'd really rather lie But the truth is always out there Honestly, honestly this time it's true or die Photo of a face can't replace the one that got away
Lift me up cause you got me on a string But when I feel like Frank Sinatra You tell me I can't sing I'm on trial with your cold biology You stole my candelabra Liberace wannabe, oh
Honestly, honestly I'd really rather cry Cause the truth is so much harder Honestly, honestly I want to run and hide Karma in the space won't erase the one that got away Rowing a river to my sea Making a foolish mess of me
Shoot me down with a phony modesty I'm not your Henry Fonda I'm not your Steve McQueen Write it down with a grim apostrophe This king and queen of drama A comic tragedy, oh
Honestly, honestly I'd really rather lie (I'd really rather lie) But the truth is always out there Honestly, honestly this time it's do or die Photo of a face can't replace the one that got away
Honestly, honestly I'd really rather cry (I'd really rather cry) Cause the truth is so much harder Honestly, honestly I want to run and hide Karma in the space won't erase the one that got away
Honestly, honestly can't replace the one that got away Honestly, honestly won't erase the one that got away Honestly, honestly she remains the one that got away
