Half Measures Won't Do It

Keith Hancock

Respect flies out of the window as love lies on the floor

Those old recriminations are knocking on your front door

Good times are getting few, passion even less

The more you think about it, you life's a total mess

Pour another whisky, light another cigarette

Eveything beings to fade away

Try drowning memories, hoping you'll forget

Tomorrow is another day

You used to go to bed to mend a lovers tiff



Now the dreams you shared together they are broken into bits

Now you never argue, now you never fight

You just don't talk and it just ain't right

Half measures won't do it anymore

Half measures won't do it

If you dont do something drastic, you'll blow it that's for sure

Because half measures won't do it anymore



Is it love or just a habit, was it love or lust

It don't seem to matter now what you call it now

It looks like it's bit the dust

Think of all the time you spent together in the past

And how your love began to fade away

Remember how you held on tight, hoping it would last

But tomorrow was another day



Half measures won't do it anymore

Half measures won't do it

If you dont do something drastic, you'll blow it that's for sure

Because half measures won't do it any...

Half measures won't do it anymore

Half measures won't do it

If you don't do something drastic, you'll blow it that's for sure

Because half measures wont' do it anymore
