It was written by Stephen Friedland, who wrote songs for people like The Tokens, Del Shannon and The Chiffons. He is probably most noted for writing and performing "The King Of Fuh", one of Apple Records more obscure releases. Maybe when he was in the UK negotiating with the Beatles, he fell in with someone connected to the Creation? Of course, this was the Ronnie Wood era Creation, not the infinitely more brill Eddie Phillips period! Not really sure how The Creation ended up recording it. "Castles of longing from the dream makers hand" indeed!
