Keep Your Head Up

I spent my time watchin'
The spaces that have grown between us
And I cut my mind on second best
Or the scars that come with the greenness
And I gave my eyes to the bottom
Still the seabed wouldn’t let me in
And I tried my best
To embrace the darkness in which I swim
I’m walkin' back down this mountain
With the strength of a turnin' tide
Oh the wind’s so soft and my skin
And the sun so hard upon my side
Oh lookin' out at this happiness
I search for between the sheets
Oh, feelin' blind and realize
All I was searchin' for was me
Oh, oh-oh, all I was searchin' for was me…
Keep your head up, keep your heart strong
No, no, no, no
Keep your mind set, keep your hair long
Oh my, my darlin'
Keep your head up, keep your heart strong
No, no, no, no
Keep your mind set in your ways
And keep your heart strong
I saw a friend of mine the other day
And he told me that my eyes were gleamin'
Oh, I said I had been away
And he knew, oh, he knew the depths I was meanin'
And it felt so good to see his face
All the comfort invested in my soul
Oh, to feel the warmth of a smile
When he said, «I'm happy to have you home
Oh, oh-oh, I’m happy to have you home"
Keep your head up, keep your heart strong
No, no, no, no (Keep your head up, keep your heart strong)
Keep your mind set, keep your hair long (Keep your head up, keep your heart
strong)
Oh my, my darlin'
Keep your head up, keep your heart strong
No, no, no, no
Keep your mind set in your ways
And keep your heart strong
'Cause I’ll always remember you the same
Oh, eyes like wild flowers, oh, with your demons of change…
(Keep your head up, keep your heart strong)
May you find happiness there (Keep your head up, keep your heart strong)
(Keep your head up, keep your heart strong)
May all your hopes all turn out right (Keep your head up, keep your heart
strong)
Keep your head up, keep your heart strong
No, no, no, no (Keep your head up, keep your heart strong)
Keep your mind set, keep your hair long (Keep your head up, keep your heart
strong)
Oh my, my darlin'
Keep your head up, keep your heart strong
No, no, no, no
Keep your mind set in your ways
And keep your heart strong
'Cause I’ll always remember you the same
Oh, eyes like wild flowers, oh, with your demons of change
