Verse 1
Thought I saw you smile, underneath you were frowning
Thought I saw you wave‚ but you must have been drowning
Pre-Chorus
What's a rose without a thorn?
What is calm without a storm?
I can't say I know what you're going through
I know you won't find peace without a war
The finest silk can still be torn
And it's always darkest right before the dawn
Chorus
So keep your head up
Keep your head up
My love
Verse 2
When you feel alone and the room is overcrowded (Oh‚ oh‚ oh)
I want you to know you could talk to me about it, darling (Yeah)
Pre-Chorus
What's a rose without a thorn?
What is calm without a storm?
I can't say I know what you're going through
But I know you won't find peace without a war
The finest silk can still be torn
And it's always darkest right before the dawn
Chorus
So keep your head up
Keep your head up
My love
Bridge
Oh-oh-oh
Too many words goin' unspoken
And oh, my door will always be open
What's a heart if it's never been broken
Pre-Chorus
What's a rose without a thorn?
What is calm without a storm?
And I can't say I know what you're going through
You won't find peace without a war
The finest silk can still be torn
And it's always darkest right before the dawn
Chorus
So keep your head up
Keep your head up
My love‚ my love
Outro
Keep your head up
Keep your head up
My love
