Lyrics Mark Knopfler

Mark Knopfler

Summer of Love

Daddy says I'll never get the roadster

What does he know

I just can't make it here in Squaresville

Daddy-O

Pretty on the inside and the out

She's the ride I'm wild about

The only one I'm dreaming of

Summer of love

Daddy says I'll never get the roadster

What does he know

We drive to where the sky is wide

And the moon is low

When I shut her down the night feels cool

I tell her she's beautiful

A million stars all swarm above

Summer of love

Whoa, summer of love

Summer days hot and dry

Hot as firecrackers on the Fourth of July

Summer nights passing slow

Gas her up Daddy I'm ready to go

Daddy says I'll never get the roadster

What does he know

We drive to where the sky is wide

And the moon is low

When I shut her down the night feels cool

I tell her she's beautiful

A million stars all swarm above

Summer of love

Whoa, summer of love
