【歌詞・和訳】 Billy Joel - Honesty 【＋動画】【＋語彙】

[1Aa]
If you search for tenderness, it isn't hard to find.
　もし優しさを求めているのなら、　見つける事は　難しくない。
You can have the love you need to live.
　生きていく為に必要な愛は　持てる。
But if you look for truthfulness, you might just as well be blind.
　でも　もし誠実を求めるのなら、　盲目なのと変わらない。
It always seems to be so hard to give.
　（誠実を）与える事は　いつもとても難しいみたい。

I can always find someone to say they sympathize.
　私は　いつも　同情していると言う人を　見つけられる。
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve.
　もし心の内を見せているならば。
But I don't want some pretty face to tell me pretty lies.
　でも　聞こえの良い嘘を言う可愛い顔は　欲しくない。
All I want is someone to believe.
　必要としているのは　信じられる人だけ。

I can find a lover. I can find a friend.
　恋人を見つけられる。　友達を見つけられる。
I can have security until the bitter end.
　最後まで何とか　安心感は持てる。
Anyone can comfort me with promises again.
　また　誰かが　約束する事で　慰めてくれる。
I know, I know.
　分かっている、　分かっている。

[3Ac]
When I'm deep inside of me, don't be too concerned.
　私が心の深く内側に居る時は、　あまり心配しないで。
I won't ask for nothing while I'm gone.
　（心の内側に）行ってしまっている間は、　私は何も望まない。
But when I want sincerity, tell me where else can I turn.
　でも　誠実を望む時は、　何処を向けばいいのか　教えてよ。
Because you're the one I depend upon.
　なぜなら　貴方は　私が頼る事の出来る人なのだから。
