With beauty I walk   Your hands outstretched to pull my wings   With god I talk   For hours and hours of time it kills   Who could be so brave   To throw this winning hand away      We suffer and see   And girl, you know   That love don't come   For people like me      A lighter touch   From the hand you used to hold so much   Now it's rent   You can't believe how quick it went   So I'll leave you sad   And every chance you take you cry      But now you know   That the path of love's   Not paved with gold   From start to end   From É said there's no such word   So I'll leave you sad   And every chance you take you cry      And it's just honesty   That always holds us down   It's just honesty    That always holds us down   One, two, three   Just frame that dream so we could   Hold the hearts of many, see   This honesty   Will always hold us down      And I said girl, you know   That love don't come   For people like me   And I said girl, you know   That love don't come   For people like me      Baby, honesty will always hold us down
