The Door Into Summer

With his fool’s gold stacked up all around him
From a killing in the market on the war
The children left King Midas there, as they found him
In his counting house where nothing counts but more

CHORUS:
And he thought he heard the echo of a penny whistle band
And the laughter from a distant caravan
And the brightly painted line of circus wagons in the sand
Fading through the door into summer

With his travel logs of ‘maybe next year’ places
As a trade-in for a name upon the door
And he pays for every year he cannot buy back with his tears
As he finds out there’s been no one keeping score

CHORUS…
