Annie Lennox - Honestly

Annie Lennox

Honestly

The beauty that you gave
Has turned upon itself
And all the things you said
Evaporated, evaporated

Was I blind, deaf and dumb
To the words slipped from your tongue?

Honestly, honestly, honestly
(Alone in my bed, the things that you said
Go round in my head, still)

Honestly, honestly, honestly
(It seems to be true that nothing I do
can influence you)

I tried and tried again
(Don't ya know I tried and tried again to make you listen to me
But everything I said, it always seemed to go right through you)

To make you notice me
(I turned myself into a person that I didn't like
But please believe me when I say I know it wasn't right)

But, talking to myself
(I never thought that things would get to be so complicated
I never thought that you and me would end up so frustrated)

Won't catch your attention, I see
(You'd think that somethin' had to come from all those good intentions
But in the end I needed somethin' more than intervention)

Was I mad? (was I mad?)
Foolish me (foolish me)
To succumb so easily (to succumb easily)
(So easily, so easily)

Honestly, honestly, honestly
(Alone in my bed the things that you said
Go round in my head still)

Honestly, honestly, honestly
(It seems to be true that nothing I do
Can influence you still)

Fools like me get so easily taken
And fools like me can be so mistaken

Honestly, honestly, honestly

The promise that you gave
(Don't ya know the promise that you gave has turned its back upon me
I stopped believin' that you couldn't take the whole thing from me)

Has turned its back on me
(I never thought I'd have to pay the price to set you free)

And all you represented was just my projection, you see
(And ya know I never thought I'd ever live a day without you
And that's the reason why it makes me sad to think about you
And ya know I never thought I'd make it if it wasn't there
And now I'm tryin' to eject myself from this despair).

People come, people go (people come, people go)
Never say "I told you so" (never say, told you so)
(I told you so, I told you so)

Honestly, honestly, honestly
(Alone in my bed the things that you said
Go round in my head still)

Honestly, honestly, honestly
(It seems to be true that nothing I do
Can influence you)

Honestly, honestly, honestly
(Alone in my bed the things that you said
Go round in my head still)

Honestly, honestly, honestly
(It seems to be true that nothing I do
Can influence you)

I told you so
Everything I know you said
Going round inside my head
Goes round in my head still

Nothing that I ever do
Ever seems to get to you
Can influence you still
[fade]

Mirror lyrics:

[fade]
Can influence you still
Ever seems to get to you
Nothing that I ever do

Goes round in my head still
Going round inside my head
Everything I know you said
I told you so

Can influence you)
(It seems to be true that nothing I do
Honestly, honestly, honestly

Go round in my head still)
(Alone in my bed the things that you said
Honestly, honestly, honestly

Can influence you)
(It seems to be true that nothing I do
Honestly, honestly, honestly

Go round in my head still)
(Alone in my bed the things that you said
Honestly, honestly, honestly

(I told you so, I told you so)
Never say "I told you so" (never say, told you so)
People come, people go (people come, people go)

And now I'm tryin' to eject myself from this despair).
And ya know I never thought I'd make it if it wasn't there
And that's the reason why it makes me sad to think about you
(And ya know I never thought I'd ever live a day without you
And all you represented was just my projection, you see

(I never thought I'd have to pay the price to set you free)
Has turned its back on me

I stopped believin' that you couldn't take the whole thing from me)
(Don't ya know the promise that you gave has turned its back upon me
The promise that you gave

Honestly, honestly, honestly

And fools like me can be so mistaken
Fools like me get so easily taken

Can influence you still)
(It seems to be true that nothing I do
Honestly, honestly, honestly

Go round in my head still)

(Alone in my bed, the things that you said
Honestly, honestly, honestly

To the words slipped from your tongue?
Was I blind, deaf and dumb

Evaporated, evaporated
And all the things you said
Has turned upon itself
The beauty that you gave
