Fixing A Hole - v1c

The song "Fixing a Hole" by Paul McCartney describes fixing problems in one's life. It talks about fixing a hole where rain gets in to stop the mind from wandering, filling cracks that allowed the mind to wander, and painting a room in a colorful way so the mind can wander there. The song expresses that it doesn't matter if one is wrong as long as they feel they belong, and talks about taking time to focus on things that weren't important yesterday.
