Keep Your Head Up (Album Version) - Ben Howard

I spent my time watchin' the spaces that had 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 bottom' 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 so soft at my skin'

The sun so hot upon my side

Oh lookin' out at this happiness'

I searched for between the sheets

Oh feelin' blind to 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 darlin' keep your head up' keep your heart strong

Oh 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'

The comfort invested in my soul

Oh to feel the warmth of his 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' keep your mind set in your ways'

Oh keep your heart strong

'Cause I'll always remember you the same

Oh eyes are wild flowers within demons of change
