Honesty lyrics

Artist  : Rodney Atkins 
Song : Honesty



 Send "Honesty" Ringtone to your Cell 

 He said: "Just think it over, and write me a
list,

"So we can figure out what we both
deserve."

She hardly could believe it, that their love had
come to this:

Dividing an' deciding his and hers.

But she grabbed a paper napkin, an' asked the
waitress for a pen.

An' one by one, she wrote down what she wanted
most from him.



"Honesty, sincerity, tenderness and
trust.

"A little less time for the rest of the
world,

"And more for the two of us.

"Kisses each mornin', 'I love you's' at
night,

"Just like it used to be.

"The way life was when you were in love with
me."



She reached across the table an' placed it in his
hand,

An' said: "You know this isn't easy for
me."

As he thought about the new car, the house an'
the land,

An' wondered what that bottom line would be.

An' a thousand other things that she'd want him
to leave behind,

But he never dreamed he'd open up that napkin and
find:



"Honesty, sincerity, tenderness and
trust.

"A little less time for the rest of the
world,

"And more for the two of us.

"Kisses each mornin', 'I love you's' at
night,

"Just like it used to be.

"The way life was when you were in love with
me."



Well, he fought back the tears, as he looked in
her eyes,

An' said: "I don't know where to
start."

An' she said: "Everything on that list in
your hand,

"Is hidden somewhere in your heart.



"Honesty, sincerity, just like it used to
be.

"The way life was when you were in love with
me."
