about

Written by Libby for her final year university project, we hope to raise funds and awareness for the Children's Heart Unit Fund based at the Freeman Hospital, Newcastle. After interviewing Ivan Hollingsworth from the charity and visiting the ward, inspiration was taken to write this song alongside a video which you can find at www.youtube.com/libbyalicehancock

lyrics

It feels like a dark night
but hope still shines through

it looks like a hard climb
but sty the top theres a view

and it feels like the healing
won’t heal anymore

but the smiles keep me moving
towards an open door

and it feels like theres nothing
left in me

but i will keep going
for the smiles that we’ll see

being so helpless
surrounded by grey

but i’ll be watching you grow stronger
day by day

It’s what you do
not what you can’t do

It’s what you do
to get you through

Do you believe
in the hope that you need

to carry and hold till
Till the stars grow old

It’s the strangest feeling
Bwhen life turns around

and you’ve got no control of
That beating sound

our footsteps leave imprints
into the sand

we’ll climb up the mountain
holding one anthers hand

and it feels like theres nothing
left in me

but i will keep going
for the smiles that we’ll see

being so helpless
surrounded by grey

but i’ll be watching you grow stronger
day by day

It’s what you do
not what you can’t do

It’s what you do
to get you through

DO you believe
In the hope that you need

to carry and hold
till the stars grow old

It’s what we do.
