Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 boredom
Still the seabed wouldn't let me in
And I tried my best to embrace the darkness
In which I swim
[Verse 2]
Now walkin' back down this mountain
The strength of a turnin' tide
Oh, the wind's so soft at my skin
Yeah, the Sun was so hot 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
[Verse 3]
Oh, oh-oh
All I was searchin' for was me
[Verse 4]
Keep your head up
Keep your heart strong
No, no
No, no
[Verse 5]
Keep your mind set
Keep your hair long
Oh my
My darlin'
[Verse 6]
Keep your head up
Keep your heart strong
No
No, no, no
[Verse 7]
Keep your mind set in your ways
Oh, keep your heart strong
[Verse 8]
And 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'
[Verse 9]
And it felt so good to see his face
Or the comfort invested in my soul
Oh, to feel the warmth of his smile
When he said, I'm happy to have you home
[Verse 10]
Oh, oh-oh
I'm happy to have you home
[Verse 11]
Keep your head up
Keep your heart strong
No, no
No, no
[Verse 12]
Keep your mind set
Keep your hair long
Oh my
My darlin'
[Verse 13]
Keep your head up
Keep your heart strong
No
No, no, no
[Verse 14]
Keep your mind set in your ways
Oh, keep your heart strong
[Verse 15]
'Cause I'll always remember you the same
Oh, eyes like wild flowers, oh within demons of change
[Verse 16]
(Keep your head up)
(Keep your heart strong)
(Keep your head up) May you find happiness there
(Keep your heart strong)
(Keep your head up)
(Keep your heart strong)
(Keep your head up)
(Keep your heart strong)
[Verse 17]
Keep your head up
Keep your heart strong
Keep your head up (No, no)
No, no (Keep your heart strong)
Keep your mind set
Keep your hair long
(Keep your head up)
Oh, my
My darlin' (Keep your heart strong)
Keep your head up
Keep your heart strong
No
No, no, no
Keep your mind set in your ways
Oh, keep your heart strong
[Verse 18]
'Cause I'll always remember you the same
Oh, eyes like wild flowers, oh within demons of change
