John Lees wrote this hauntingly beautiful love song, although its inspiration was anything but beautiful. A music journalist had alluded to Barclay James Harvest as a poor man's Moody Blues, which obviously irked the lead guitarist, so he based this on the Moody's classic "Nights in White Satin." The melody though is entirely different, and attempts to sing the words of the latter to the tune of the former do not work, which is Lees' polite way of telling this journalist what he thought of his claim.
