Gilbert O`sullivan At Least I`m Honest Lyrics

At Least I`m Honest Lyrics

I'd tell you a lie if I told you that

 I wouldn't tell you the truth

 I'd stand in the way of a runaway train

 If it came towards you

 Well maybe not if there was

 I'm a coward I have to confess

 But at least I'm honest

 

 I'll never forget how it was that we met

 You were just seventeen

 I told you I liked older women

 And you were the oldest I'd seen

 You started to laugh

 Told me I must be daft

 Whereupon I said yes

 But at least I'm honest

 

 And I'll go on sending you birthday cards

 That arrive the following week

 And I'll try my hardest not to forget

 Not to forget next year

 And I'll come home late when I should be early

 Blame It on the one for the road

 Though it may not always be to your liking

 For instance I could never climb

 the highest mountain peak

 To prove to you my love is true

 I'm scared of heights you see

 

 You never say much when I long for your touch

 Except keep me enthralled

 One thing I like about you is you're

 never embarrassed at all

 Me. I'm so shy, that at night if the lights on

 I won't get undressed

 But at least I'm honest

 

 I'll give you a lift on my bicycle

 if you don't mind going slow

 Needless to say it can vary

 Depending on how the wind blows

 Cars are okay but on my earnings

 I couldn't afford the test

 But at least I'm honest

 

 And I'll go on telling your dear old mother

 She's always welcome round here

 That Is providing she can keep tier mouth shut

 And doesn't interfere

 And I will for want of a better word

 Love you more than words ever say

 Though it may not always be to your liking

 I couldn't climb a mountain high

 To prove I loved you so

 I'm not the type, I'm scared of heights

 A touch of vertigo

 

 And I'll never hurt you. how could I do

 You're the one good thing In my life

 If it weren't for the fact we're already married

 I'd marry you tonight

 And I'll do whatever is necessary

 To improve our standard of life

 Though it may not always be to your liking

 For instance I could never die

 To prove my love was real

 it wouldn't do a lot for you

 And even less for me
