keep your head up

I spent my time watchin'

The spaces that have grown between us

And I cut my mind, on second best

All 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

Now walkin' back, down this mountain

The strength of a turnin' tide

Oh the wind's so soft, and my skin

Yeah the sun was so hot upon my side

Oh lookin' out, at this happiness

I searched for it between the sheets

Oh feelin' blind, and realized

All I was searchin' for was me

Oh oh, all I was searchin' for was me

Oh, yeah

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

Keep your heart strong

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'

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, "I'm happy to have you home"

Oh, yeah

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 you heart strong

No, no, no, no

Keep your mind set in your ways

Keep your heart strong

'Cause I'll always remember you the same

Oh eyes like wild flowers, oh with your demons of change

May you find happiness there

Oh may all your hopes all turn out right
