John Sebastian
Full Measure
[Verse 1]
The full measure of your giving
You don't yet understand
A cupful of living
That you hold in your hand
[Verse 2]
The full weight of your loving
Makes me lighter than air
The tax I'm receiving
Now, I know that it never was there
[Bridge]
It started off just sticking around
With that wonderful feeling from you
Now, there's finally someone telling me
I can really give, too
[Verse 3]
I know you know the feeling
That getting something for nothing is wrong
Getting love is so easy
Giving love takes so long
[Bridge]
It started off just stickin' around
With that wonderful feeling from you
Now, there's finally someone telling me
I can really give, too
[Verse 4]
I've heard them saying at Christmas
Now, I can say it to you
The feeling of giving
It's as good as I'm getting from you
[Outro]
It's as good as I'm getting from you
It's as good as I'm getting from you
It's as good as I'm getting from you
