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 trust?
Cos in my heart this quality's a must
to give your heart so truly to someone
knowing full well that you might not receive
to give your love so freely to someone
knowing full well that you might not retrieve
So here is my heart
And here is my soul
Take them both they're yours
but please be careful they're as delicate as you
So 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 is my heart
And here is my soul
Take them both they're yours
but please be careful they're as delicate as you
So here is my heart
And here is 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 own it you will see.
(2x)
So here is my heart
And here is my soul
Take them both they're yours
but please be careful they're as delicate as you
