    Story Behind the Song
    This is about Hyde Park - dedicated to Steve's dad, Peter Hackett, who since the 60s has sold thousands of original paintings from the railings alongside Bayswater Road at the open air art fair there every Sunday, come rain or shine.

    Lyrics
    As the rainfall
    Drums it's own tune
    On the roof of the bandstand
    Keep off the grass sign
    By the lakeside
    Where it leaves you Autumn

    In the meanwhile
    The hours seem to fly
    With busy days and nights
    Take it in your stride
    As worrying is interest paid on trouble
    Long before it's due
    Passing through

    Silver snowstorm
    Music without words
    Blowing through the airwaves
    Head in sunshine
    Under fire now
    Even when you're dreaming

    Crystal fountains
    Peter Pan stares
    Over the landscape
    Without motion
    On pencil grey days
    To a Door Marked Summer
