If you live in the city or you live in the bush
|
Love is a thing that you just don't rush
|
Look at my boyfriend and then you'll see what I mean
|
I'm not gonna blow it by spoiling his dream
|
|
I can see that apple high up in a tree
|
I'm not going to rock it, let it fall to me
|
Speak of the devil and he'll walk right in
|
If he talks to me I'll just give him in
|
|
Take a little measure, Take a little measure
|
Measure of my heart
|
Measure up
|
The shark could eat me
|
Or I could eat the shark
|
Measure up
|
Take a little measure, Take a little measure
|
Measure of my soul
|
Measure up
|
If there's still cold water, then I'm running cool
|
Measure Up
|
|
If you live in the mountains or down by the sea
|
Love is a thing to make you make your heart beat
|
I went for a ride, I just jumped to my feet
|
I smile so hard, you can see all of my teeth
|
The boy fills me with such energy
|
I'll play this hand intuitively
|
We'll ignore the problems that destroy the rest
|
Turn good to better, and better to best
|
|
Take a little measure, Take a little measure
|
Measure of my heart
|
Measure up
|
The shark could eat me
|
Or I could eat the shark
|
Measure up
|
Take a little measure, Take a little measure
|
Measure of my soul
|
Measure up
|
If there's still cold water, then I'm running cool
|
Measure Up
|
|
If you live in the desert or among the trees
|
Love is a thing to take at your ease
|
??? survive the waste
|
We'll serve the time for the rest of our days
|
We'll see all the places that we've never been
|
No matter where our love will begin
|
I know he's not the only fish in the sea
|
But, man-oh-man there is no other for me
|
|
Take a little measure, Take a little measure
|
Measure of my heart
|
Measure up
|
The shark could eat me
|
Or I could eat the shark
|
Measure up
|
Take a little measure
|
Measure of my soul
|
If there's still cold water, then I'm running cool
|
Measure Up
|
