Measure Of a Man

Just tell me what's the measure of a man.
Is it to provide all that he can?
Or is it just how much he can offer
To any willing heart that will receive?
Or is it just how much you can take from him
Before he truly sees?

And tell me now do you believe in truss?
'cos in my heart this quality's a must;
To give your heart so freely to someone
Knowing full well that you might not retrieve.
To give your heart so freely to someone
Knowing full well that you might not retrieve.

So here's my heart,
And here's my soul,
Take them both they're yours
But please be careful they're as delicate as you.

Tell me what's the measure of a man.
Can you find it in the distance that he ran?
To give you everything you ever wanted
So you would never have to want or need.
To give you everything you ever dreamed of, babe,
But all it bred was jealousy and greed.

So here's my heart,
And here's my soul,
Take them both they're yours
But please be careful they're as delicate as you.

So here's my heart,
And here's my soul,
Take them both they're yours
But please be careful they're as delicate as you.

Now you took what you want
And now you got what you need.
You just kick the lock and leave.
But then when you find
The real world's unkind
And it will never treat you better than me
And the sooner that you won it you will see.

So here's my heart,
And here's my soul,
Take them both they're yours
But please be careful they're as delicate as you.

So here's my heart,
And here's my soul,
Take them both they're yours
But please be careful they're as delicate as you.
