It's not the way you thought that it should be You did not win It feels like there's no light, no A different ending you could not foresee It dragged you in, oh yes it did You've lost your way A steep price to pay Strength should prevail There's always tomorrow A new day will follow So hold your head up high So hold your head up high V2 You've got to play the hand that you're given You can't complain You move on, stay strong, yeah You make the path that leads to your heaven It's not in vain, life's lessons learned You'll find your way That price you'll pay Strength will prevail A new day's tomorrow And others will follow So hold your head up high So hold your head up high You gotta hold your head up high It will be alright Oh yes it will Cuz all you can do is try You got to dry your eyes (Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, get up, get up, get up, get up, get up) Chorus So hold your head up high So hold your head up high
