People Who Cared

They were the people who cared
With beads in round their necks and flowers in their hair
Talking about peace, talking about love, supporting each other
Yeah, they were the people who cared

They were the people who cared
You were never allowed to feel alone
Just share a joint, spend time together
Yeah, they were the people who cared

They were the people who cared
Yes, they were naïve
Yes, the dream was thin
But they were the people who cared

They were the people who cared
And on a quiet summer night
Don’t you want them back
As they were the people who cared.
