Gilbert O'sullivan - At Least I'm Honest Lyrics
I'd tell you a lie if i told you thatI wouldn't tell you the truthI'd stand in the way of a runaway trainIf it came towards youWell maybe not if there wasI'm a coward i have to confessBut at least i'm honestI'll never forget how it was that we metYou were just seventeenI told you i liked older womenAnd you were the oldest i'd seenYou started to laughTold me i must be daftWhereupon i said yesBut at least i'm honestAnd i'll go on sending you birthday cardsThat arrive the following weekAnd i'll try my hardest not to forgetNot to forget next yearAnd i'll come home late when i should be earlyBlame it on the one for the roadThough it may not always be to your likingFor instance i could never climbThe highest mountain peakTo prove to you my love is trueI'm scared of heights you seeYou never say much when i long for your touchExcept keep me enthralledOne thing i like about you is you'reNever embarrassed at allMe. i'm so shy, that at night if the lights onI won't get undressedBut at least i'm honestI'll give you a lift on my bicycleIf you don't mind going slowNeedless to say it can varyDepending on how the wind blowsCars are okay but on my earningsI couldn't afford the testBut at least i'm honestAnd i'll go on telling your dear old motherShe's always welcome round hereThat is providing she can keep tier mouth shutAnd doesn't interfereAnd i will for want of a better wordLove you more than words ever sayThough it may not always be to your likingI couldn't climb a mountain highTo prove i loved you soI'm not the type, i'm scared of heightsA touch of vertigoAnd i'll never hurt you. how could i doYou're the one good thing in my lifeIf it weren't for the fact we're already marriedI'd marry you tonightAnd i'll do whatever is necessaryTo improve our standard of lifeThough it may not always be to your likingFor instance i could never dieTo prove my love was realIt wouldn't do a lot for youAnd even less for me
