Stephin Merritt - And She Would Say lyrics

Don't be afraid trumpets and drums
Can't hurt you here don't waste a tear
When trouble comes we've got it made

And she would say "Stay and instruct me
Don't run away now that you've plucked me"
And she would say "Here is my home
And here I'll stay" my heart is strong
The proof of that is I've survived
I have arrived and hung my hat
Where I belong

And she would say "Children could play here
Out of the fray promise to stay here"
And she would say "I'll stay with you
Till our last day"
