Honestly
Harem Scarem Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I stand before you
Accused of many crimes
But I want to believe
That love can still survive

You don't have to say it,
I don't have to read your mind
To know the emptiness
That's finally arrived

How was I,
To know the right from wrong
Words were hardly spoken,
So where did I go wrong?

Tell me honestly
If you're still loving me
Looking into my eyes, honestly!

Words will have more meaning,
If they're said at certain times
Now the all they've seen
I found to be a lie

How would you know it,
You won't give me sometime
To see if everything could work out,
And you'll be mine

Oh, will love be lost forever
But someday I will find
The world we've all been searching for
Or just some peace of mind..

Tell me honestly
If you're still loving me
Looking into my eyes, honestly!

Tell me honestly
If you're still loving me
Looking into my eyes, honestly!

All the night I sit and wonder
Must be more to laugh, I'm sure that
Days and years gone by while I am
Living with the..
Oh, lonely feeling

Tell me honestly
If you're still loving me
Looking into my eyes, honestly!

Tell me honestly




If you're still loving me
Looking into my eyes, honestly!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Honestly" by Harem Scarem captures the vulnerability of the singer standing accused of numerous crimes with no defense but love, which he believes can still survive amidst the emptiness they are currently experiencing. The singer admits to not knowing the right from the wrong because hardly any words were spoken, and he questions if love will be lost forever but still holds onto the hope of finding the peace of mind they are both searching for. The song projects the essence of the singer's desire for honesty from his partner, wanting to know if they still love him as they did before, and if there is a possibility of working things out so that they can be together again.
