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 Oh, 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, my dear 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 (Keep your head up, keep your heart strong) no, no, no, no Keep your mind set, keep your hair long (Keep your head up, keep your heart strong) oh 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, my dear 'Cause I'll always remember you the same Oh, eyes like wild flowers, oh, with your demons of change Oh, may you find happiness there Oh, may all your hopes all turn out right
