I drag a comb across my head
 Heard whispers from the avenues
 Saying "C'mon gal, take a day off school"
 The things you do when you are young
 Candy came and turned me on
 With a Beatles revolution song
 Had a smoke and shared a joke
 And said we'd drive down to the coast
 The things you do when you are young
 Well we cruised down town in a blue sedan
 With the top rolled back as the sun beat down
 And the pretty boys on the promenade
 Shouted "C'mon girl, cos here we are"

 Angel
 It's the summer of love
 And I feel on fire
 In the heavens above yeah
 my spirit is flying
 It's the summer of love
 And young hearts will always run free
 The things you do when you are young
 So we walk the beach for an hour or two
 Just looking cool nothing else to do
 Warm winds brushed against our face
 Like an angel's kiss it's left no trace
 The things you do when you are young
 As the storm cloud breaks across the bay
 The surf-board kings have had their day
 And Candy said "I've got a great idea
 Let's get the car and drive out of here
 Angel

 Chorus:
 The things you do when you are young
 Well we cruised down town in a blue sedan
 With the top rolled back as the sun beat down
 And the pretty boys on the promenade
 Shouted "C'mon girls cos here we are"
 Angel

 Chorus:
 It's the summer of love
 And my whole world's turning
 In the heavens above yeah
 my spirit is burning
 It's the summer of love
 And young hearts will always run free

 Chorus
