Measure Of A Man Lyrics - 1996

[ Buy Measure Of A Man ]

(zack turner/lonnie wilson)

It's five o'clock
At the sad cafe
Dinner for one, a table for two
Another lonely day
She tries to hide the pain
But her strong will is just a weak disguise
It's there in her eyes

She wants to be somebody's baby
She wants to be somebody's friend
She just needs a choulder to lean on now and then
She's no stranger to danger
She's had her heart broke a time or two
She wants to be somebody's baby
But she's nobody's fool

Someone long ago
Promised her the moon
But the fairy tale didn't go so well
It ended way too soon
And the scars of love
Have been known to take some time to heal
Can't you see how she feels

She wants to be somebody's baby
She wants to be somebody's friend
She just needs a choulder to lean on now and then
She's no stranger to danger
She's had her heart broke a time or two
She wants to be somebody's baby
But she's nobody's fool

She's no stranger to danger
She's had her heart broke a time or two
She wants to be somebody's baby
But she's nobody's fool
