Gonna make a few things happen

I waited over 25 years to put those panels on St. John's
Didn't want obsolete technology detracting from the power of the sun

I'm gonna make a few things happen, write a book, get to Europe
Maybe take a train to Vancouver
Or pile the fam in the van and drive

Do you think I should get a passport?
I am truly loving that Canada is vast
I have travelled through nine provinces
Giving Newfoundlanders time to prep for for me

When short of breath I blame myself
I worry about you and how you'll do
One day one of us will be gone
I know we'd both go crazy
Yet we have to carry on
Love up the grandchildren
Treasure each living moment
I wanna put some panels on the church I grew up in
I'm gonna make a few things happen
