Rodney atkins honesty-rodney atkins lyrics

He said "Just think it over and write me a list

so we can figure out what we both deserve"

she hardly could believe it

that their love had come to this

dividing and deciding his and hers

but she grabbed a paper napkin 

asked the waitress for a pen

and one by one she wrote down 

what she wanted most from him



honesty, sincerity, tenderness and trust,

a little less time for the rest of the world

and more for the two of us

kisses each mornin'

i loves you's at night

just like it used to be

the way life was

when you were in love with me



she reached across the table 

and placed it in his hand

and said "you know this isnt easy for me"

as he thought about the new car the house and the land

and wondered what that bottom line would be

and a thousand other things 

that she'd want him to leave behind

but he never dreamed he'd open up that napkin and find



honesty, sincerity, tenderness and trust,

a littleless time for the rest of the world

and more for the two of us

kisses each mornin

i loves you's at night

just like it used to be

the way life was

when you were in love with me



well he fought back the tears, 

as he looked in her eyes

and said "i dont know where to start"

and she said "everything on that list in your hand 

is written somewhere in your heart"



honesty, sincerity, 

just like it used to be

the way life was

when you were in love with me
