Keep your head up - radio edit
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
Now walkin' back down this mountain
With the strength of a turnin' tide
Oh the wind's so soft on my skin
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
Ooh ooh 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, 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
Or the comfort invested in my soul
Oh to feel the warmth of a smile
When he said "I'm happy to have you home
Ooh ooh I'm happy to have you home."
Yeah, keep your head up, keep your heart strong
No, no, no, no
Keep your mind set, keep you 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 within demons of change
May you find happiness there
May all your hopes all turn out right
Keep your head up, keep your heart strong
No, no, no, no
Keep your mind set, keep you 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 within demons of change
