If you search for tenderness
It isn't hard to find
You can have the love you need to live
But if you look for [bad word] You might just as well be blind
It always seems to be so hard to give
 [bad word] Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so [bad word] Honest is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you

I can always find someone
To say they sympathize
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
But I don't want some pretty face
To tell me party lies
All I want is someone to believe
 [bad word] 
I can find a lover
I can find a friend
I can have security
Until the bitter end
Anyone [bad word] me
With promises again
I know, I know

When I'm deep inside of me
Don't be too concerned
I won't as for nothin' while I'm gone
But when I want sincerity
Tell me where else can I turn
Because you're the one I depend upon
