Story Behind The Song

My mom is always saying "Everyday is a Holiday" and she is genuinely grateful for every minute of everyday. She is an amazing person who sees everyone as equal and loves everyone alike so I had to write this song.

Song Description

This songs compares the joy and generosity that we feel on holidays with everyday living. It says we should extend this same love and caring to everyone, everyday.

Lyrics

Monologue:
This song is inspired by something my mother said to me
Its about celebrating each and everyday of our lives
And this is what she said

Chorus:
Everyday is a holiday
Celebrate
Everyday is a holiday
Celebrate
Be grateful, and loving and giving

How would you feel if today were Thanksgiving Day
It's more than a great meal
Be grateful for the ones who are with you today
Thankful for the time spent with those who've passed away
And forgiving to the ones we think have gone astray
Mama used to say

Chorus:

What would you do if today were Christmas Day
Your spirit shining through
What can I give would be the theme of the day
How can I help would be the words that you'd say
And thank you for these gifts for God has made a way
Mama used to say

Chorus:

Bridge:
To see the sunrise for another day
Be thankful
To smile, to laugh, to walk sing and dance
Be thankful
There is so much to be grateful for
When we focus on our blessings we'll have many more
Your cup will overflow, yeah

How would it be if we lived each day with gratitude and generosity
Learning to say thank you even through our pain and strife
Blessed is the darkness for we know it turns to light
And we know what we give comes back multiplied

Mama used to say

Mother's Day, Father's Day
Everyday's a Holiday
Chorus:
