Gilbert O'sullivan - 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 embarra**ed 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
