EPW056931 ENGLAND (1938). Beechwood House, Flamstead, 1938

Beechwood Park: It's a song which grows and grows as you hear it. ----- The album sits at 100 in Rolling Stone\s All-time top 500 yet I'll never grasp why Zombies classic 'Beechwood Park' never features in the school, nay. rather than the anthem, it's left unmentioned. ================== "Zombies bassist Chris White wrote this song. In The Guardian (February 22, 2008), he explained: "Beechwood Park is a real place. My father owned a general store in Hertfordshire and he used to deliver to a private girls' school called Beechwood Park. I remember driving round there and seeing steam rising off the road in the summer after rain." ========================= Do you remember summer days Just after summer rain When all the air was damp and warm In the green of country lanes? And the breeze would touch your hair Kiss your face and make you care About your world Your summer world And we would count the evening stars As the day grew dark In Beechwood Park Do you remember golden days and golden summer sun The sound of laughter in our ears In the breeze as we would run? And the breeze would touch your hair Kiss your face and make you care About your world Your summer world And we would count the evening stars As the day grew dark In Beechwood Park Oh roads in my mind Take me back in my mind And I can't forget you Won't forget you Won't forget those days And Beechwood Park And the breeze would touch your hair Kiss your face and make you care About your world Your summer world And we would count the evening stars As the day grew dark In Beechwood Park Oh roads in my mind Take me back in my mind And I can't forget you Won't forget you Won't forget those days And Beechwood Park
