[Verse 1]
We've been reliving this a thousand times
It's seems you're gone much as you were mine
You keep on calling and calling
But I know what you really want
I said I'm reaching 'cause I want to
And I've got nothing to get close to
I keep on holding and holding
But I know

[Chorus]
By any measure, better late than never
If it's you, it's gotta be soon
See I know better than to wait forever
If it's you, it's gotta be soon, girl

[Verse 2]
I keep on waking up to footsteps
I'm used to making up not making sense
It's like I'm falling and falling
But I know what you really want
Do you believe it like you used to?
'Cause there was nothing that we couldn't do
I keep on holding and holding on
But I know

[Chorus]
By any measure, better late than never
If it's you, it's gotta be soon
See I know better than to wait forever
If it's you, it's gotta be soon, girl

[Refrain]
(By any measure)
You can't hold something you can't see
And it makes us in between, oh
Well she'll never let me know
So I never let it show
Shoulda known
(By any measure
By any measure)

[Chorus]
By any measure, better late than never
If it's you, it's gotta be soon
See I know better than to wait forever
If it's you, it's gotta be soon, girl
It's gotta be you
It's gotta by you
By any measure
By any measure
By any measure
