Hold Your Head up High
One November long ago
You left me standing in the cold
Nothing more than my tears to hold
And a flower for your grave
I carried you out of the church
Into the back of that black hearse
And as we lowered you into the dirt
I thought I heard you say
Hold your head up high my darling
And don't you ever compromise yourself
This is not goodbye my child
I love you more than life itself
So carry on
And be strong
Eleven years just flew right by
Gone with the wind and so was I
Not much that I didn't try
To fill the hole inside my heart
I rarely ever spoke your name
Wanted to forget the pain
Eradicate the memory
Of me falling apart
You said
Hold your head up high my darling
I think about you every day
Oh no, no
This is not goodbye my child
I love you more than words can say
So carry on
And be strong
Hold your head up high my darling
And don't you worry about tomorrow
This is not goodbye my child
When you are sad I'll steal your sorrow
So carry on
And be strong
You left me standing in the cold
Nothing more than my tears to hold
And a flower for your grave
I carried you out of the church
Into the back of that black hearse
And as we lowered you into the dirt
I thought I heard you say
Hold your head up high my darling
And don't you ever compromise yourself
This is not goodbye my child
I love you more than life itself
So carry on
And be strong
Eleven years just flew right by
Gone with the wind and so was I
Not much that I didn't try
To fill the hole inside my heart
I rarely ever spoke your name
Wanted to forget the pain
Eradicate the memory
Of me falling apart
You said
Hold your head up high my darling
I think about you every day
Oh no, no
This is not goodbye my child
I love you more than words can say
So carry on
And be strong
Hold your head up high my darling
And don't you worry about tomorrow
This is not goodbye my child
When you are sad I'll steal your sorrow
So carry on
And be strong
