When I was seventheen
My dreams would last the night
And I could only feel
One evening at a time
All through the summer heat
The visions came to me
Like lonely day dreams
As I rolled down the street
Summertime police
Summertime release me
Summertime police
Summertime release me
Sitting by country streams
I learnt to fear police
My teacher said to me
You mustn't dare to dream
Summertime police
Summertime release me
Summertime police
Summertime release me
Summertime police
Summertime release me
Summertime police
Summertime release me
Summertime release me
