Listen to the Stevie Wonder's song and fill in the gaps with the correct words from the song:

No New Year's Day to celebrate.
No chocolate covered candy hearts
to give away.
No first of _____, no song to sing.
In fact here's just another ordinary day.
No ____ rain, no flowers bloom.
No wedding ________ within
the month of ____.
But what it is, is something true
made up of these three words
that I must say to you.
I just called to say I love you.
I just called to say
how much I care.
I just called to say I love you.
And I mean it from
the bottom of my heart.
No ______'s high, no warm __
__.
No harvest moon to light one
tender ______ night.
No ______ breeze, no falling leaves.
Not even time for birds to fly
to southern skies.
No Libra sun, no _________.
No giving thanks to all the
_________ joy you bring.
But what it is, though old so new
to fill your heart like no three words
could ever do.
I just called to say I love you.
I just called to say
how much I care.
I just called to say I love you.
And I mean it from the
bottom of my heart.
I just called to say I love you.
I just called to say
how much I care.
I just called to say I love you.
And I mean it from
the bottom of my heart.
of my heart.

Vivaldi, 4th seasons

The Four Seasons (Italian: Le quattro stagioni) is a set of four violin concertos by Antonio Vivaldi. Composed in 1723, The Four Seasons is Vivaldi's best-known work, and is among the most popular pieces of Baroque music. The texture of each concerto is varied, each resembling its respective season. For example, "Winter" is peppered with silvery staccato notes from the high strings, calling to mind icy rain, whereas "Summer" evokes a thunderstorm in its final movement, which is why the movement is often dubbed "Storm."
