You Didn't Have To (Song for NursesEverywhere)

12/15/2020

0 Comments

 
From Brown & Gray's YouTube Library
We feel immensely proud and honored to have written "You Didn't Have To" a song that connects not only to my mother Jayne Gray personally a front line nurse of 35 years, but also to the whole nursing community. Growing up watching my Mum throw her heart and soul into her job has given me massive respect for every single nurse out there, as I know first-hand how much of themselves they pour into others in their desperate time of need.

It’s a thankless task and they really didn’t have to, they chose to... that is why we are eager to lend our music to the ‘Thank A Nurse, Wear A Mask’ campaign to promote safe behaviors that reduce the spread of COVID-19.”

Warmly, Sam & Kaci

You Didn’t Have To
Written by Kaci Brown & Sam Gray
Published by Notting Hill Music (UK) Limited & Notting Dale Songs, Inc.

Verse1
Here’s to the ones that’ll never take credit
Here’s to the ones that won’t admit it
I hope you know, we’re all thanking God for you
And here’s to the ones on call all night
Don’t think twice about the sacrifice
Here’s to the extra mile that you take it to
Here’s to the front-line warriors
To being brave for all of us

Chorus
You didn’t have to make him laugh
Or hold her hand like that
You didn’t have to love but you did...
just to make ‘em all feel better, yeah
You didn’t have to pray all night
You didn’t have to risk your life
If everybody loved like you did
the world would be a whole lot better
You didn’t have to ...
No, you didn’t have to no, no

Verse2
You give it all like there ain’t much to it
Fire’s all around and you walk right through it
I hope you know, we’re all thanking God for you
There are not enough words to say
You’re a hero in every way
So I raise my glass for everything that you do
Here’s to the front-line warriors
To being brave for all of us

Bridge
Thank You, Thank You
Cause You didn’t have to ...
Thank You, Thank You
Cause You didn’t have to ...

Outro
Yeah, here’s to the Frontline Warriors being brave for all of us
