[Intro] La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la [Verse 1] Ever had a feeling that you can't go on? Trying to be strong but getting weaker Carrying the weight of every single day Having lost your way, feeling defeated [Pre-Chorus] Sat staring, counting spiral patterns on the wall You wonder if your luck is ever gonna turn around, but, oh [Chorus] You need a little light to guide the way Waiting on the sun to shine again You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high You need a little hope to carry on In the middle of the night, when you're all alone You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high [Verse 2] Your bedroom carpet stained with rosé wine Empty's left behind, the morning after The distant purr of cars on soaking roads And the street echoes the noise of laughter [Pre-Chorus] The bottom of the bottle finds you almost every night You wonder if your life is ever gonna turn out right again [Chorus] You need a little light to guide the way Waiting on the sun to shine again You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high You need a little hope to carry on In the middle of the night when you're alone You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high [Post-Chorus] La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la [Bridge] Confused and battered by the motion of the changing tides You're nearing empty and you've barely got the will to fight You wonder if you're gonna live or if you will survive Oh [Chorus] You need a little light to guide the way Waiting on the sun to shine again You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high You need a little hope to carry on In the middle of the night when you're alone You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high [Post-Chorus] La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la [Outro] La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la
