From the recording Still Moving
Lyrics
I'm gonna make it shine.
I'm gonna make it shine.
No matter how low my feelings go.
Or what may come in time.
It won't get me down.
I'm gonna turn it around.
I'm gonna make it shine.
When the skies are a heavy battleship gray
You won't see me fret or whine.
I know that soon those clouds will blow away.
I'm gonna make it shine.
I'm gonna make it shine.
I'm gonna make it shine.
The window may be streaked with grease and grime.
Still, I'm gonna make it shine.
Some people say it's a mean old world.
Filled with heartache and sin.
But inside that shell may hold a beautiful pearl.
Just gotta look within.
Some people say it's a dirty old town.
Filled with tears and ill intent.
But after it rains, and the sun goes down.
You'll wonder where the sadness went.
I'm gonna make it shine.
I'm gonna make it shine.
I'm gonna scrape off the rust.
And sweep off the dust.
I'm gonna make it shine.
I'm gonna make it shine.
I'm gonna make it shine.
I'm pulling back the curtains.
Opening up the blinds.
I'm gonna make it shine.
I'm gonna make it shine.
I'm gonna make it shine.
Gonna flip the switch.
Scratch the itch.
Strike a match.
Open the latch.
