Holiday
G. Love & Jack Johnson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She doesn't wear any wings
She wears a heart that can melt my own
Wears a smile that can make me wanna sing
She gives me presents
With her presence alone
She gives me everything I could wish for
Gives me kisses on the lips just for coming home
She could make angels
I've seen it with my own eyes
You gotta be careful when you've got good love
'Cause the angels will just keep on multiplying
Ah, but you're so busy changing the world
Just one smile and you can change all of mine
We share the same soul
Oh oh oh oh
We share the same soul
Oh oh oh oh
We share the same soul
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
The lyrics to G. Love & Jack Johnson's song "Holiday" depict the joy and love that comes with being in a devoted and fulfilling relationship. G. Love sings about his "angel," who he describes as somebody who doesn't wear any wings, but instead, wears a heart that has the ability to melt his own. Her presence alone is enough to give him everything he could ever wish for, including kisses on the lips just for coming home. He describes her as somebody who could make angels herself, and that he needs to be careful because good love can just keep multiplying.
However, amidst all the love and happiness, G. Love reflects on the fact that people can get so caught up in wanting to change the world that they forget to cherish what they have in front of them. A simple smile from his partner has the power to change him entirely because they share the same soul. The lyrics are an ode to love and the beauty of finding somebody who completes you and makes you feel whole.
Overall, the lyrics showcase the importance of gratitude, cherishing the present, and finding joy in simple things like a smile from a loved one. It's a reminder to appreciate the love we have.
