A Long Vacation - Ricky Nelson

Summertime’s here but it’s been so long

It’s been a long cold winter, I’m so glad it’s gone

Come on, baby, don’t have no fear

School has passed through another year

A long vacation this is gonna be

Every night this summer save your love for me

I jump in my car and drive clear ‘cross town

Just to be with you, baby, when the lights go down

Just to be with you, baby, is my one desire

The flames start to burnin' with your kisses of fire

Hold me, baby, and never let go

That’s when I feel like you love me so

One of these days we’re gonna settle down

Then I won’t have to drive clear ‘cross town

You’ll be mine through eternity

'Cause that’s the way it was meant to be

Just to be with you, baby, is my one desire

The flames start to burnin' with your kisses of fire

Hold me, baby, and never let go

That’s when I feel like you love me so

One of these days we’re gonna settle down

Then I won’t have to drive clear ‘cross town

You’ll be mine through eternity

'Cause that’s the way it was meant to be
