A Doorway to Summer (Remastered)

Doorway 11:34
People – searching for reasons and fall into the learning curve We are searching for seasons, a better place in this world Running naked along the shores (tracking down the source) You know love is a flower; you gotta let it grow… Lonely lovers run through corridors Waiting for the tide to turn And towards the sun they steer the course Forgetting about what they have learned Finally found what calms my inner sea Before the dust settles down, I’ve paid my fee See me flying a flake (left out from the snow) Whenever you’re down in goodbyes, I say hello! Lonely lovers… Chasing bands on the run, from a noose of hate, a flower sprung Time’s a friend in this endless end, the guru hums, his note I’ll send Listen to your inner voice, it always leads you home, always guides you right Black and white as day needs night the winter’s cold needs summers light Open up the door, Open up the doorway

All the royal robbers stood in line As the Swedish king his crown declined Everybody wants to rock the boat But when it rains, oh you give away your coat If you dance across the ocean You will see a mad, mad world Oh boy it is a mad, mad world Did you read the news today poor boy? They’ve come to take away your favourite toy Summer landed late one day in June But winter paved its’ way that afternoon If you dance across the ocean You will see a mad, mad world Oh boy it is a mad, mad world Wake your kids its way, way past bedtime The thief left what he stole far, far behind His toy gun was lost never to be found If you come across the ocean someday you might find That we’re busy selling Sweden to Norwegians… A Sun of Your Own The world is a lonely playground, when the carnival is leaving town Sometimes golden and sometimes it is grey Life is just a picture; you paint it day by day Stars will guide your way, you will find light someday And why do you feel alone, you got a sun of your own Go find the open doors, the universe is yours Who knows which door to go through? Who knows which door to shut? What a crappy earthday, this aint no happy birthday Am I a still born son of sadness, climbing the mountain of human clay? Love will paint your day, in all colours you might say And while you hurry home, you got a sun of your own The movement will remain, or we’ll start it all again Stars will guide your way, you will find light someday And why’d you feel alone, you got a sun of your own Go find the open doors, the universe is yours Listen to the music, the guide to your escape You figure out the pattern, to design the perfect day The source of inspiration, the great gift from above All that once was nothing, has a meaning and it’s love, it’s love… Stars… Light of summer tell me, who will brighten up your day? Whispering from heaven, love to unlock doors of grey is just a colour, Life will conquer anyway, let the river lead you, let the ocean paint the day when love was born, the Sun of your Own

PART I Sitting on a cloud, making jokes to the crowd Telling tales of the sun, and how it all begun Spin the wheel of time with my help you’ll be fine Life is worth a while, if everyone would smile Smile and sing along, we won’t blame no one Unleash colours within, the world is set aspin You say that you’re one of a kind, but I don’t believe in you that much I say that we all are one no matter what colours we are Because the colour of you is me where would we be without a helping hand? And someone that understands? The soapbox opera of daily grey will play from the cradle to the grave Throw your soul away like a coin in the wishing well But there is no need to gamble you can’t win this game is rigged And once the game is played where would you go when you’ve already won The road to the goal is what matters and now we’re taking off Smile and sing a song, we hope you’ll come along Unleash colours within, the world is set aspin Remember how we used to play when we we’re kids and the world was new Well, I am still the silly one, the same although my face has changed I have a beard and my hair is longer, but I still don’t have a job So I’ll keep on staring at the skies asking my, when/what/whys All join as one, turn the moon into a sun… PART II Come in from the cold, relax you’re home Safe and sound, so dry your eyes Someone borrowed something blue, heaven’s losing 0 for 2 Winter’s old when spring is new, grace let sunshine warm our frozen hearts and in time you will Three times a charm, when love is a part of everything you will PART III See us sail on a single raindrop through a web of dreams We can play any tune we’d like Cause they’re all alive Paper people on fragile feet, all give in to the human beat Share our vision everlasting; we are one in the light fantastic Through the rain and into the unknown, we cast our stone And the weight of the world at our backs, were left behind on the track Sunshine people you carry the wind, that will turn the whole world around Winter mornings melt into spring, the call of summer and choirs will sing… La La La… You said you were one of a kind, but I did not think you looked like much You told me of rivers and mountains, a simple world left untouched But time has a funny way of telling you the truth at the very end And now I see that you are me, a child with a grownups eyes You told me that life was a doorway that we should all walk on through You showed me the way and you said that I could walk it too Yes, time has a funny way of telling you the truth at the very end And now I see that you are me, a child with a grownups eyes We spin the world, around, turned the moon into a sun We spin the world around, with love and faith, we can, we can… We spin the world, around, turned the moon into a sun We spin the world around, with love and faith, we can, we can create…

There is a river through the ocean, Through forever, coming home Chasing dreams on the run, in the blink of an eye, the dream will be gone Winter windows, search for summer Brand new morning, open doors Lonely lovers run towards the sun Time will tell, in time it all will be done The love you were searching for far and wide, Was always waiting there by your side…
