Measure

[Verse 1]
Want a little bit more than
What you gave me at first glance
It's like you're selling me short but
Maybe there's a reason I missed
I can only bend so far
'Til I start to feel it all break
Time's passing me by; are you listening?

Far and foreign is kindness
When I mourn all that I lack
Then from you I hear "What if
You could lose your firm grip on all this?"
Why've you been so near while I
Went and gave us all grief?
I ask but I know what's really happening here

[Chorus]
Rest in the measure given
And come alive, come alive
Rest in the measure given
And come alive, come alive

[Verse 2]
In the evening there's time for
Reminiscing and pining
In the morning I ponder
Why we ever even started this mess
Heard you had a better idea
On how to draw me away
What's that over the hill?
New season's rising

[Chorus]
Rest in the measure given
And come alive, come alive
Rest in the measure given
And come alive, come alive

Rest in the measure given
And come alive, come alive
Rest in the measure given
And come alive, come alive

[Outro]
Will you let me go?
Oh no, you won't let me go
Will you let me go?
Oh no

Will you let me go?
Oh no, you won't let me go
Will you let me go?
Oh no

Will you let me go?
Oh no, you won't let me go
Will you let me go?
Oh no

Will you let me go?
Oh no, you won't let me go
Will you let me go?
Oh no, ooh

You won't let me go, oh no
