Lower the Bar

I need to lower the bar
the measure I'm using is wrong
I look too deep inside
and quickly move along

it's not that I ask too much
romance and a love to hold
seeking one that is true
a heart that is made of gold

do you think there are any left?
someone who can rock my world
a kindred spirit that wants the same
and can make my heart unfurl

I need to lower the bar
the measure I'm using is wrong
I look too deep inside
and quickly move along
