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
