Four thousand people with flowers in their hair

Walking around, just feeling the air

People who looking for a new world

Can't understand that it's here

Can you imagine a world without love?

No distant star or sky up above,

No one to hold when the night becomes cold,

No one with whom to grow old

People just moving to sight and sound

After this life, they're eternity-bound

You must believe, or you will find

You will be left far behind

San Francisco is losing its hate,

And all the love flows out through the Golden Gate

Into the ocean that flows 'round the world,

Hoping it's never too late

Love is like a flying bird

Love is like a bird

Love is like a bird

Love is like a bird

It must be allowed to flow free

And fly away

It must be allowed to fly free

Never put your love in a cage or it will die
