I gave you my heart
I gave you my soul
I gave everything that I had but you left me in the cold
But still I have faith
Somehow I believe (I believe, I believe)
That if I keep love in my heart it will find it's way to me

I could fight, seek revenge
But that's not who I am
No, I'm not giving in
I will rise above

I'm gonna keep walking though it may seem far
I'm gonna keep preaching when life gets too hard
Not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road
I'm gonna keep climbing 'till I see the top
I'm gonna keep trying though I may get lost
Not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road

I'm gonna get by on the high road (yes, I will)
I'm gonna get by on the high road

This pain that I feel
I will overcome
I know somewhere deep down inside
It's the pain that makes us strong

I could curse, I could shout
Take the easy way out
I'll forgive you, somehow
I will rise above, oh

I'm gonna keep walking though it may seem far (may seem far)
I'm gonna keep preaching when life gets too hard
Not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road (high road)
I'm gonna keep climbing 'till I see the top
I'm gonna keep trying though I may get lost
Not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road

I'll get by (oh, I know I'll get by) to be free (to be free)
I can't keep it inside (no, I can't keep it inside)
I may fall sometimes but I will survive (survive)
I'm gonna keep preaching
I'm gonna keep climbing (say you're with me now)
I'm gonna keep trying

I'm gonna keep walking though it may seem far
I'm gonna keep preaching when life gets too hard
Not gonna let you bring me down
I'll take the high road

I'm gonna get by on the high road
I'm gonna get by on the high road (take the high road)
I'm gonna be fine on the high road (fine)

I'm gonna get by on the high road (gonna get by)
I'm gonna get by on the high road
I'm gonna be fine on the high road
