Lyrics

Honest Man

Verse 1
My hands are tied and I can't walk
Couldn't find the words even if I could talk
My mouth is dry and my mind won't stop
thinking bout the what-if's could've beens and maybe nots

Chorus
See I promised you once upon a time
I'd give you everything if only you'd be mine
Now I find myself staring at these hands
Simple useless tools of an hinest man

Verse 2
My eyes are dim and I hang my head
I've worked so hard to live that ll my dreams are dead
Then there's you my shining light
the very soul provider of my will to fight
