Lyrics

When I took my first steps
On those northern heights
My father said proudly
You're born to fight
He spoke of great battles
Where dragons lay slain
That was my fate
A glorious life full of pain
But then I heard music
And the beauty of art
Came to me swiftly
And pierced my heart
I swore that I'd write
The great songs of our time
I'd travel the world
And that destiny would be mine
And yet I would soon
Forget I had cared
When I saw
How the sun caught in her hair
We danced hand in hand
To the sound of the fiddle band
As boys set the fires alight
And I knew soon enough
The only girl I'd ever love
Was her on that midsummer night
Hey, I was a fool
I never saw it through to the end
I was held fast by the stars
She had cast in her eyes
On that midsummer night
One day she said boy
You must face your fears
It's been a tradition
For a thousand years
I won't have a husband
Who hides for hours
Can't lift a sword
And draws pretty pictures of flowers
Well, I said to her, darling
You're not for me
I won't have a wife crush my artistry
Perhaps it is time that we sever our ties
She screamed and she cursed
Tears welling up in her eyes
But I'd take it back again, I swear
For a chance to see
The sun dance in her hair
We swung hand in hand
To the sound of the fiddle band
As boys set the fires alight
And I knew it then
And surely, I'd know again
The girl on that midsummer night
Hey, I was a fool
I never saw it through
I was held fast by the stars
She had cast in her eyes
On that midsummer night
If I'd heard everything
I've learned so far
I'd be bolder
And I'd hold her in my arms
And the life that I've made
I'd give it all away
Just like I once thought I might
When I knew what I'd be
At least 'til she looked at me
Once on a midsummer night
Hey, I was a fool
I never saw it through to the end
I was held fast by the stars
She had cast in her eyes
On that midsummer night
