Lyrics
HOLD YOUR HEAD HIGH - senio 2004
(dedicated to our men & women fighting in Iraq)
Son, you'll be just fine
From the man on the other side
Can't say where or when you're going
Just shake my hand and understand
When you get there...just get there
Hold your head high
As they blaze across the sky
You made it here alive
We all cry
For the ones you left behind
I can see them in your eyes
I see a little child
Visions of my own...crying
Can't say where or when this all ends
Son take my hand and understand
When we get there...we'll get there you can
Hold your head high
As they blaze across the sky
We made it here alive
We all cry
For the ones you left behind
I can see them in your eyes
(bridge)
Crying....
Why can't the world let me live in peace, escape it all
'Cause all I wanna do is watch the sun rise and fall
I've got a friend lying in my arms
Says "A man came along, took my from my home,
no my children are left alone, I think I'm.....dying!"
Hold your head high
As they blaze across the sky
You made it out alive
We all cry
For the ones you left behind
I can see them in your eyes
Hold your head high
As they blaze across the sky
You made it home alive
We all cry
For the ones you left behind
I can see them in your eyes
