[Verse 1]
Oh my friend
You have carried me but you've left me again
In my time of need
When everyone is moving but me

Heaven knows this is real

[Chorus]
So lift me up, raise my head high
And take my photograph
And keep it 'til I'm old enough to know
That I was lovely, and I was truthful
If only I could have seen it
If only I could have believed it
Oh, this could be my second chance
This could be my second chance

[Verse 2]
Morning came
And it left me with a bitter taste
Of a mould I don't fit
But with many others we commit

Heaven knows this is real
[Chorus]
So lift me up, raise my head high
And take my photograph
And keep it 'til I'm old enough to know
That I was lovely, and I was truthful
If only I could have seen it
If only I could have believed it
Oh, this could be my second chance

[Bridge]
And I feel like this is the first day
Of a brand new life in which I'm thirsty for
An honest life where I can love myself
For who I am, who I am

Take my photograph
And keep it 'til I'm old enough to know
That I was lovely and truthful

[Chorus]
So lift me up, raise my head high
And take my photograph
And keep it 'til I'm old enough to know
That I was lovely, and I was truthful
If only I could have seen it
If only I could have believed it
Oh, this could be my second chance
