Honestly

We're friends, but I feel so much more
But here it's so dark - I can't find the door
I wish I knew which way to go
Because I know I love you so

Honestly, when it comes to me
I don't know what you see
But, honestly, I know how I feel
If only I knew how to make it real

I want to feel your implicit trust
I want you to know this is more than lust
You're afraid to let me in
Please let go and let our love begin

Honestly, when it comes to us
I feel like I've been hit by a bus
But, honestly, I don't give a damn
Even if I feel like a ham

I know this isn't much, but it comes from inside
The very same place that your image abides
I think of you every second of every day
I just don't know any other way

Honestly, you've taken my heart
You took it with you from the start
But, honestly, I freely gave it up
So that your life could fill my cup

This is the truth, expressed through verse
Forever, this will be my eternal curse
I express myself best through song and ryme
Even if it cost me my last dine

Honestly, I've given my heart away
Just please tell me that you'll stay
'cause honestly, I wouldn't know what to do
If I couldn't spend every second thinking of you
