A Night In Summer Long Ago Lyrics - Singles - Mark Knopfler

My lady may I have this dance? 

Forgive a knight who knows no shame 

My lady may I have this dance? 

And lady may I know your name? 

You danced upon a soldier's arm 

I felt the blade of love so keen 

And when you smiled, you did me harm 

And I was drawn to you, my queen. 

Now these boots may take me where they will 

Though they may never shine like his 

There is no knight I would not kill 

To have my lady's hand to kiss 

Yes and they did take me through the hall 

To leave me not one breath from you 

And they fell silent, one and all 

And you could see my heart was true

Then I did lead youfrom the hall 

And we did ride upon the hill 

Away beyond the city wall 

And sure you are my lady still 

A night in summer long ago 

The stars were falling from the sky 

And still, my heart, I have to know 

Why do you love me, lady, why?
