She's lookin' for a job and a finer place to stay
She's lookin' for the hope in the empty promising
She's workin' two jobs, keepin' alive
She works in a restaurant, night and day
She waits her life away
She wipes the tears away

She cries inside every time she feels this way
And she's dying inside every time her baby cries, no

Keepin' your head up to the sky
Keepin' your mind up stay alive
Gimme your wings so we can fly
(Keep your head up tonight)

Keepin' your head up to the sky
And we can just rise up, tell me now
Gimme your wings so we can fly

We're killing up the life in the birds in the trees
And we're sucking up the air in the earth from under me
(It's never too late)
I can't even breathe, I can't even see (just lean on me)
Keep your head up, don't give up today
How long can we wait?
I wish that love would come today

All you need is love
Tell you I'm know it's comin' soon
And all you need is just a moment, want it to
Keep your head up

Keepin' your head up to the sky
Keepin' your mind to stay alive
Gimme your wings so we can fly
(Fly away, fly away, fly away)
(Keep your head up tonight)

Keepin' your head up to the sky
And we can just rise up, tell me now
Gimme your wings so we can fly
(Oh, my)

Everybody say that time is borrowed
And hanging down your head just ain't no good
And if you dare to rise above tomorrow (if you dare to rise)
(Give it a chance)
Just give yourself a chance
Find the circumstance
Rise and do it again (rise again)

Keepin' your head up to the sky (oh no)
Keepin' your mind up stay alive (oh no)
Gimme your wings so we can fly (woo, woo)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Keepin' your head)
Keepin' your head up to the sky (ohh)
And we can just rise up, tell me now
Gimme your wings so we can fly (woo, woo)
(Keepin' your head up) I need your love, I need you now

Keepin' your head up to the sky (I need your light right here today)
Keepin' your mind just stay alive (I need you now)
Keepin' your wings so we can fly (woo, woo)
(Yeah)
(Keepin' your head up) I need your love, I need you now

Keepin' your head up to the sky (I need your light right here today)
And we can just rise up tell me now (I need you now)
Keepin' your wings so we can fly (woo, woo)
(Keepin' your head up)

Gonna shine it's light on us today (ohh)
Keep your head up
Gonna shine it's light on us today (today)
Keep your head up
The sun's gonna rise on us today (today)
Gonna shine it's light on us today (today, ohh)

Keep your head up (I need your love, I need you now)
The sun's gonna rise on us today (today)
(I need you now)
Gonna shine it's light on us today (today, ohh)
