Laura Veirs — Make Something Good

From my favourite summer album.

I wanted to make something strong
An organ pipe in a cathedral
That stays in tune through a thousand blooms
Make something good

It’s gonna take a long, long time,
But we’re gonna make something so fine

I wanted to make something pure
Emerald field from steer manure
A wild eyed child in a moon-lit room
Make something good

Oh, I wanted to make something built to last
A bottled ship with a golden mast
And through the squall, the course stays true
Make something good
