An Ode to Spring Vacation, 2022 (via various song lyrics)

Part I: 

Teach your children well

You just call on me, brother, when you need a hand; We all need somebody to lean on

You can go your own way

Take it easy

That's why I'm easy; I’m easy like Sunday morning

If we took a holiday; Took some time to celebrate, Just one day out of life. It would be, It would be so nice.

Part  II: 

Its a beautiful morning

Groovin' on a Sunday afternoon; Really couldn't get away too soon

Smell the sea and feel the sky; Let your soul and spirit fly; Into the mystic

Ain’t no mountain high enough

We were running against the wind

Summer breeze, makes me feel fine

I just want to celebrate another day of living.

These are days you’ll remember. Never before and never since, I promise, will the whole world be warm as this. And as you feel it, you'll know it's true that you are blessed and lucky. 

Life sounds like; Woah oh-oh-oh-oh!; This is what it sounds like.

Part III: 

Shower the people with love

God only knows where I’d be without you

I wanna dance with somebody

Dancing in the moonlight; Everybody's feeling warm and bright; It's such a fine and natural sight, Everybody's dancing in the moonlight.

And maybe too, if you would believe you too might be Overjoyed.

So I, I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up; And this woman was singin' my song

We'll go dancing in the dark; Walking through the park; And reminiscing

Part IV: 

Closing time

Closer I am to fine

The hardest to learn was the least complicated

If you got the notion, I second that emotion

I've gotta get home, There's a garden to tend

I’m leaving on a jet plane

Please celebrate me home

Home is wherever we are if there’s love here too

Baby, how you feelin'? (Feelin' good as hell)
