A song for all the nurses and health care workers.
lyrics
Verses
I see you put those hours in
I see you when I need to mend
I know you, I know your name
We broke bread you taught me things
Where are the stickers on the cars
That praise the work of healing power?
I don't see the mess we've made
But I know you do, I'm listening
When the financiers start to jeer
And try to divide with fear
I'll remember what you do
And fix my words to honour you
Chorus
When the sun goes down and you're walking home in your scrubs out in the street
Do the people thank you as they fall asleep?
Do we sing the praise of healers as we do for those who harm?
As our eyes get heavy do we think of what you've done?
