Measure Of a Man Lyrics

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.

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.
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.
