It was nineteen sixty seven and love was in the air

I felt I was in heaven with a flower in my hair

It came out of San Francisco the thrill was everywhere

We were dancing in the disco on the streets and in the square

It was summer we were singing of peace and love

Humming all around us below us and above

It was the summer the summer the summer of love

It was the summer the summer the summer of love

It was the summer the summer the summer of love

It was the summer the summer the summer of love

Now it’s twenty twenty one and love is in the air

Beyond the gloom and doom sun is bright sky is fair

I hear the music ringing nobody can wait

We got freedom got love got life celebrate

This is summer we are singing of peace and love

Humming all around us below us and above

This is the summer the summer the summer of love

This is the summer the summer the summer of love

This is the summer the summer the summer of love

This is the summer the summer the summer of love

It’s summer and we’re singing of peace and love

Humming all around us, below us and above

This is the summer the summer the summer of love

This is the summer the summer the summer of love

This is the summer the summer the summer of love

This is the summer the summer the summer of love
