(chorus) Oh, did I strike the chord of honesty in you Did I strike it hard enough A bout of lust between true love My heart it cries with every lie Did I strike the chord of honesty in you In the vane of my submission I dreaded everything What lucky fate lies waiting For this troubadour of mercy, tell me (repeat chorus) Did cupid pluck my strings with fingers Strumming through my heart like thunder Maybe if you knew I bet you'd write this song for me Oh, would you strike it gently Oh, would you strike it mighty My heart it cries with every lie Did I strike the chord of honesty in you Is this life or a test of endurance I'm durable but am I able, am I wanting Do I need to strike this chord in you Do I need to see the truth (repeat chorus)
