D-DU-UDU
Oooooo
Ooooooo
If  one day you discover  him
 Broken down
 He's lost everything
 No cars, no fancy clothes
 To make him who he's not
 The woman at his side
 Is all that he has got
Why  do you ask  him
 Move heaven  and earth
 To prove  his love has worth?
Would  he walk on the water?
Would  he run through fire?
Would  he stand before you
 When it's down  to the wire?
Would  he give his life up
 To be all  he can?
Is  that
Is  that
Is  that
How  you measure a man?
 If by chance all he had to  give you
 Was three words wrapped around  your finger
 Would that be deep enough
 At the end  of everyday?
 And how will you ever know
 If the man  is what he says?
Why  do you ask  him
 Move heaven  and earth
 To prove  his love has worth?
Would  he walk on the water?
Would  he run through fire?
Would  he stand before you
 When it's down  to the wire?
Would  he give his life up
 To be all  he can?
Is  that
Is  that
Is  that
How  you measure a man?
 He never gives up
 Let's go  of his dreams
 His world  goes around
 For his one true belief
 Is that  how you know?
 Is that  what it means?  Hey
Would  he walk on the water?
Would  he run through fire?
Would  he stand before you
Will  he be your anchor
When  the dark unfolds?
Will  he always love you
 The best  that he knows?
Would  he give his life up
 To be all  he can?
Is  that
Is  that
Is  that
How  you measure a man?
 Final Chorus:
Would  he walk on the water?
Would  he run through fire?
Would  he stand before you
 When it's down  to the wire?
Would  he give his life up
 To be all  he can?
Is  that
Is  that
Is  that
How  you measure a oh-woh
Is  that
Is  that
Is  that
How  you measure a man?
