Writer: Alan Menken
These battered hand are all you own
This broken heart has turned to stone
Go hang your glory on the wall
There comes a time when castles fall
And all that's left is shifting in the sand
You're out of time, you're out of place
Look at your face
That's the measure of a man
This coat that fits you like a glove
These dirty streets you learned to love
So welcome back my long lost friend
You've been to hell and back again
God alone knows how you crossed that span
Back on the beat, back to the start
Trust in your heart
That's the measure of a man
It's the fire in the eyes, the lines on the hand
It's the things you understand
Permanent ties from which you once ran
That's the measure of a man
You've come full cirlce, now you're home
Without the gold, without the chrome
And this is where you've always been
You had to lose so you could win
And rise above your troubles while you can
Now you can love, now you can lose
Now you can choose
That's the measure of a man

I've always liked this song very much, although I thought it was written by Elton.
5 stars.

5 Yes, it's a great song like all Elton's songs from that era.

Good song from the Rocky 4 soundtrack. Always enjoyed it. 5 stars I think it's from Rocky V. I have the Rocky IV Soundtrack (a very good record by the way) and it's not on it, and I recall hearing it after Rocky V (which fortunately, I did not go to see in the theater, since it wasn't very good).
