Because We Can:

Lyrics

A Girl Could Get Used to This
Copyright © 2004, 2005, by S. Andina

In the city and the country
In the town and on the plain
You were growing up with promise,
You were growing up with pain.
You enlisted to pursue a dream
Or as your only choice.
Whether hawk or dove, we wish you with one voice:

Safe home, safe home
Every candle on the windowsill
From Naperville to Nome
Says whatever you are going through
You'll never be alone.
Very soon--safe home.

Never thought you'd be a soldier,
Never thought you wouldn't be
But no matter how you got there,
Giving shape to history,
And whichever way we view the war
In which you're taking part,
Take comfort when we tell you from the heart:

Safe home........

In the church and in the cafe,
In the school and in the square,
We're all wishing you were here
And not in danger over there.
Be we Democrat, Republican
Or none of the above,
We're all praying with the power of our love

For safe home, safe home
Every candle on the windowsill
From Roanoke to Rome
Says whatever you are going through,
You'll never be alone.
Very soon--safe home.
