I know the song so well I didn’t listen to it all the way to the end.🙂

But I most pay attention to song lyrics, and lyrically Al Stewart is a genius. I’ve heard some Al Stewart fans make an exception for this song, but it’s no exception.

Like Peter Lorre contemplating a crime...

Yes, the lyrics to this song are so relaxing.

Let's not forget my two Al Stewart favorites, "On the Border" and, especially, "One Stage Before".

The "Year of the Cat" album is my all-time favorite. In fact, I'm not sure why anyone even bothered to write more music after that was released.
