lyrics

The 1967 Summer of Love was unsustainable - as all seasons are - but coming together in peace and harmony is something worth trying over and over, “every year, from now on, and just in time”. Bert wrote this new anthem in 2006 - in anticipation of the Summer of Love’s 40th anniversary. The studio recording was produced by T Bone Burnett for a FOBs album that never happened. Words and music by Bert Keely.

Maybe it starts with being ready to rest.
Gandhi, he knew, martyrs usually do
We met this bird in a summer of love, between winters of war
Our brothers were burnin', fueling a fire
We needed that dove to lift our gaze higher

Maybe a summer of love, we need another summer of love
A season that comes on the beat of a drum
Every year from now on, and just in time

A white dove, one wing stretched
The other wing hides a beast in the breast
Now it's winter again, and there's sand in the wind
And this could be humanity's test

When you're ready for rest you don't escalate, you just move along
Get your lift from the air, not from others' despair
And you stay strong, and you share
Stay strong and you share

Maybe a summer of love, we need another summer of love
A season that comes on the beat of a drum
Every year from now on, and just in time

Maybe a summer of love, we need another summer of love
A season that comes on the beat of a drum
Maybe a summer of love, we need another summer of love
A season that comes on the beat of a drum
Every year from now on, and just in time
