Written by bob welch.





In the summer, when we change to men

Welll we eased up on the throttle then

And we listened to open book of love

All the the crazies & the water bombs

Car radio turned number one

Yeah the one time we were careless, wild & young



(chorus)

Those days are gone

But we still can hang on to our love

Yeah we can



I remember crusin' all those streets

In the beachtowns where the gas was cheap

And the summer, seemed to last longer than life

On the bus bench, eatin' cherry pie

With the one guy

Who was always high

And the one girl

That you dream of every night



(repeat chorus)
