Lyrics A Long Vacation - Ricky Nelson

A Long Vacation

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
