      僕も日本人の20歳の若者ですが、よく聞いていてとてもいい曲だと感じます
      普段は洋ロックが大好きで聞くのですが、この曲だけはどうしても聞きたい瞬間があって、度々聞いてます
      歌詞がとても切ないが共感出来て、物語性のある歌で超名曲だと思います

      “pretty faces telling pretty lies” is the status quo nowadays (it’s getting worse through social media)….that’s why lots of people choose to stay single (a lot of relationships are just smoke and mirrors).

    If you search for tenderness
    It isn't hard to find
    You can have the love you need to live
    But if you look for truthfulness
    You might just as well be blind
    It always seems to be so hard to give
    Honesty is such a lonely word
    Everyone is so untrue
    Honesty is hardly ever heard
    And mostly what I need from you
    I can always find someone
    To say they sympathize
    If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
    But I don't want some pretty face
    To tell me pretty lies
    All I want is someone to believe
    Honesty is such a lonely word
    Everyone is so untrue
    Honesty is hardly ever heard
    And mostly what I need from you
    I can find a lover
    I can find a friend
    I can have security until the bitter end
    Anyone can comfort me
    With promises again
    I know, I know
    When I'm deep inside of me
    Don't be too concerned
    I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone
    But when I want sincerity
    Tell me where else can I turn
    'Cause you're the one I depend upon
    Honesty is such a lonely word
    Everyone is so untrue
    Honesty is hardly ever heard
    And mostly what I need from you

      I put a quote on FB recently, and credited "the Great American Philosopher, Billy Joel..." It was a quote from Shades of Grey... "Now with the wisdom of years I try to reason things out
      And the only people I fear are those who never have doubts
      Save us all from arrogant men, and all the causes they're for
      I won't be righteous again, I'm not that sure anymore
      Shades of grey are all that I find
      When I look to the enemy line
      There ain't no rainbows shining on me
      Shades of grey are the colors I see."

    中学生のころ、英語の時間に先生がこの曲を流してくれました。ビリーの曲で初めて聴いた曲。英語で意味が分からなくても何故か涙が出そうだった。
    歌詞の和訳を知りたくて調べても、当時、幼い私には今ひとつ分からなかった。
    成長するにつれ、歌詞の意味が分かるようになり、何度も聴くたびに、救われるようになりました。辛い時には癒され、同時に涙が出ました。
    ビリー、この曲を作ってくれてありがとう。
    東京のライブで初めて聴いた時は感無量でした。
    これからも聴き続けます。

    ついこないだ日本にも久しぶりに見えられましたね。見られた方は良かった幸運ですね。この曲も高校時代喫茶店有線からよく流れていました。当時は彼女の行きつけの茶店でコーヒー飲んで煙草互いに吸い大人ぶり他愛のない話をしてたのを思い出します。特に雨の土曜午後からの待合わせ。夕方迄話し、高架前の北田辺駅で南に帰る俺をホーム下から見送るアイツ…過ぎたとはいえ。この歌と共に忘れられないシーン。

    Honesty -- Lyrics
    If you search for tenderness
    It isn't hard to find.
    You can have the love you need to live.
    But if you look for truthfulness
    You might just as well be blind.
    It always seems to be so hard to give.
    Honesty is such a lonely word.
    Everyone is so untrue. Honesty is hardly ever heard.
    And mostly what I need from you.
    I can always find someone To say they sympathize.
    If I wear my heart out on my sleeve.
    But I don't want some pretty face To tell me pretty lies.
    All I want is someone to believe.
    Honesty is such a lonely word.
    Everyone is so untrue. Honesty is hardly ever heard.
    And mostly what I need from you.
    I can find a lover.
    I can find a friend.
    I can have security until the bitter end.
    Anyone can comfort me With promises again.
    I know, I know.
    When I'm deep inside of me Don't be too concerned.
    I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone.
    But when I want sincerity Tell me where else can I turn.
    Because you're the one that I depend upon.
    Honesty is such a lonely word.
    Everyone is so untrue. Honesty is hardly ever heard.
    And mostly what I need from you
