Hold your head high.
Stand tall, baby, it's all right.
Don't put yourself down
'Cause I'll come around
And put you right back up
On that pedestal you're too afraid to stand upon.
So right now I'm telling you,
Darling, you're beautiful.
Oh, don't I know it's true.
Someday you'll find your way to Heaven.
Now just remember what I say:
There are people out there that think the world of you.
There are bluer skies
And brighter stars
On the other side
Of what we call life.
And if you keep your confidence, baby,
I know you will find out
Before anyone else even tries.
Oh, and keep holding your head up high.
