Artist/Band: The Monkees
Lyrics for Song: The Door Into Summer
Lyrics for Album: Original Album Series [2012]



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



And he thought he heard the echoes of a pennywhistle 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 travelogues 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 when he finds out

There's been no one keeping score



And he thought he heard the echoes of a

Pennywhistle 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



Yes, he thought he heard the echoes of a

Pennywhistle 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



Fading through the door into summer...

Fading through the door into summer....


About The Door Into Summer

"The Door Into Summer" is a standout track from The Monkees' 1966 debut album, capturing the band's signature blend of pop-rock and whimsical storytelling. Released during the height of the British Invasion's influence in America, the song exemplifies the group's polished studio production and their ability to craft catchy melodies that resonated with a wide audience. The track features the band's characteristic interplay between lead vocals and harmonies, delivered over a rhythm section that balances upbeat energy with a touch of melancholic reflection. As part of their early discography, the recording helped solidify The Monkees' status as one of the most popular teen groups of the mid-1960s, influencing countless subsequent acts in the pop genre. Its enduring appeal lies in its perfect fusion of youthful optimism and sophisticated songwriting, making it a timeless addition to the band's catalog.
