Wilson used tonal misdirection in that song, something that was the specialty of Rachmaninoff among others. The intro is in A Major, but the song itself is in F Major. Then he brings back the A Major intro in the middle before returning to F Major.

Thank you. That means absolutely nothing to me. I don’t have a musical bone in my body, but I CAN carry a tune and I know what I like when I hear it.

And I DO like Rachmaninoff. Who doesn’t? :)
