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 greeness.
|
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.
|
|
I'm 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 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 I'm happy to have you home."
|
|
Yeah, keep your head up, keep your heart strong.
|
Oh, 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.
|
Ooh may you find happiness there,
|
May you find warmth in the middle of the night.
|
|
Yeah, keep your head up, keep your heart strong.
|
Oh, 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.
