Meshell Ndegeocello
"Sincerity"
he Loves
with sweetness and sincerity
while she
may only
pretend
he caresses her hair
(thinks to himself)
such a lovely face
gives his entire self
(shares his secrets)
but it's all in vain
his Love for her drowns him
in a sea of denial
the fear of being alone
will it keep her there?
he Loves
with sweetness and sincerity
while she
may only
pretend
he Loves
with sweetness and sincerity
while she
may only
pretend
when the morning comes
(he reaches out)
to feel her warmth
she pulls away
(closes his eyes)
he's so ashamed
he's pourin' all the truth
but what a fool he is
to wish for wine in her empty Kiss
he Loves
with sweetness and sincerity
while she
may only
pretend
he Loves
with sweetness and sincerity
while she
may only
pretend
he Loves
with sweetness and sincerity
while she
may only
pretend
he Loves
with sweetness and sincerity
while she
may only
pretend
he Loves
with sweetness
and sincerity
while she
may only
pretend
he Loves
with sweetness and sincerity
while she
may only
pretend
he Loves
he Loves
he Loves
he Loves
he Loves
pretend.
