Will it ever be?
I've tried so hard to find sweet serenity
Are you still afraid?
Just close your eyes and dream, and fear will fade away.

Time won't flow, everyone knows
When the pain fades away
And dreams won't die, with tears in our eyes
You've got to hold your head up high... (yehhey... hey)
You've got to hold your head up high...
You've got to hold your head up high...

It's taken some time,
And I've given up the will to change your state of mind
Try and understand,
It's not so hard to see that I am just a man.

Time won't flow, everyone knows
When the pain fades away
And dreams won't die, with tears in our eyes
You've got to hold your head up high...
You've got to hold your head up high...
You've got to hold your head up high...

Will it ever be?

It's not so hard to see that I am just a man.

Time won't flow, everyone knows

You've got to hold your head up high...
You've got to hold your head up high...
You've got to hold your head up high...
You've got to hold your head up high...
