Every Rainbow Drawn

Just been listening to this:
very Rainbow Drawn’ is an original song written and performed by young people across Gloucestershire. It's a way of saying ‘thank you’ to doctors, nurses, supermarket workers and teachers – and to raise money for the NHS. The entire piece was written, performed and recorded by the children and young people you see in the video, with a bit of production help from us at The Music Works.

Waving through a window;
A kiss blown through the pane;
A cloud, a storm has come along to rain on our parade.

Every call when you’re on call,
In the dreams before you leave,
On your shoulders now is every breath we breathe.

Every rainbow drawn,
Every colour coloured in
Is a ‘here’s to you all’ –
Here’s to you not giving in.

Everything you do,
Everything you make ok,
Until this goes away,
Until this is done.
Every rainbow drawn.

Through every mask,
Through every veil,
There’s a hidden other hundred with a story to tell.

Every step you’re taking
Gonna help us make it
An angel without wings with the strength to carry on.

Every rainbow drawn,
Every colour coloured in
Is a ‘here’s to you all’ –
Here’s to you not giving in.

Everything you do,
Everything you make ok,
Until this goes away,
Until this is done.

You’re a hero without armour
And it must be so hard away from home,
For everything you sacrifice.
But we know there’s a blinding light
when ‘together’ comes and takes away ‘alone’
when ‘together’ comes and takes away ‘alone’ (x6)

Every rainbow drawn,
Every colour coloured in
Is a ‘here’s to you all’ –
Here’s to you not giving in.

Everything you do,
Everything you make ok,
Until this goes away,
Until this is done.

Every round of applause,
When we sing Dorothy’s song,
Every touch that gets torn,
‘til ‘together’ comes and takes away ‘alone’
‘til ‘together’ comes and takes away ‘alone’

Thanks Maggie, I should have done that. Although I did just google the title myself.
