This song is the sound of the last night of the best tropical vacation of your life.
You sit on the beach and watch the glowing orange and red sunset over the water.
You dread flying back to the real world in the morning.
You reflect on the whole experience with an aching nostalgia, despite having lived it mere hours ago, and not yet having left.
You sit, alone, with the bittersweet longing for the life you've seen out here, the life that is real, not just the beige plastic constructs of the false life at home.
You remember with a shiver the hours you spent with that beautiful stranger, the kiss you shared, or maybe more...and brief though it was, you know that you will never see them again, even though you now know, with even greater certainty, that they are your eternal love.
Tears in your eyes, you sip the last of your cocktail, lie back against the sand, and listen to the gulls screech overhead.

Exactly what I thought of when I first heard it. They really captured beautiful raw emotional landmarks in their cbs series.

Amaury I'm enjoying this very much. This whole album is stunning, but there's something about this song that's jaw droppingly beautiful and sublime. I can't think of a more fitting way to conclude this album. It may be my favorite last song to any album ever

Back a while ago, someone uploaded this album to YouTube as a playlist with one video per song, but this final track was missing, so I had no idea it existed (said series of videos has since been deleted). I ended up buying the album on CD, and can still remember being in absolute awe when I heard this play for the first time after Evening Shadows ended. What a beautiful piece of music, definitely one of my favorites. While I do wish that more people knew about it, there is something kind of cool about it being such a hidden gem. It makes it that much more special :-)
