Lyrics

It was never just a summer
It was never just a year
It was never tie-dye fabric
Or a flower at the ear
It was something like a candle
Passed from trembling hand to hand
Through the marches, through the winters
Through the wires across the land

We are the love generation
We were always, we remain
Every era, every nation
Every joy and every pain
If you love your neighbor's freedom
Like you love your own front door
You were always one among us
You were with us long before

To the elders in the gardens
Who first dared to say out loud
That a world could run on kindness
You should see us, you'd be proud
We took your stubborn vision
And we taught it how to fly
Now the candle is a sunrise
And it's climbing up the sky

We are the love generation
We were always, we remain
Every era, every nation
Every joy and every pain
If you love your neighbor's freedom
Like you love your own front door
You were always one among us
You were with us long before

So if you're coming to the future
Bring the ones you call your own
Bring the doubters and the dreamers
Nobody walks alone
Wear your orange flowers brightly
Wear them all along the way
For the love generation
Never ended anyway

Never ended
Never ended
The love generation
Never ended anyway
