Up till now I used to pass my time
Up till now my youthful stage
I never, I never, I never
Up till now my love life
Up till now I used to tap dance
Up till now the path of life was fair enough
Drinking beer so slowly, sometimes wine
No God, air, water or sunshine
And honesty was my only excuse
I took your love and I used it
A useless rage, a torn out page, a worn out gauge
A dirty shade, a big charade, a has been made
And honesty was my only excuse
I took your love and I used it
A few sweet kisses, a little missus, a fork and knife
a happy home, a hand to hold, a land to roam
And honesty was my only excuse
I took my life in my own hands and I abused it
Take a girl by the hand saying I need your
I need your romance
Oh I had so many chances
And honesty was my only excuse
I took your love and abused it
Enough was fair, all was right
And now I know, I see the light
And honesty was my only excuse
