Lyrics Finally Something Good - Paul Kelly

Finally Something Good

You’re a long cool drink of water on a blazing summer’s day
You’re autumn trees undressing in the month of May
Even in the winter-time, we don’t have to turn on the heat
You’re early spring-time blossoms floating on my street
Long, dark days have been withstood
Now there’s a change in my neighbourhood
Finally, something good
On my lonely island, every day I walked the strand
Mine the only footprints on the sand
It seemed that I would always be way beyond the pale
Until the day I saw your distant sail
I lit the fire from wild wood
You saw the plume, oh, you understood
Finally, something good
Finally, something good
Long, dark days have been withstood
Now there’s a change in the neighbourhood
Finally, something good
Finally, something good
Finally, something good
Something good, this way comes
Something good, this way comes
Something good, this way comes
This way comes, this way comes
This way comes, this way comes
Something good
