The words are beautiful and haunting. Might I ask, Alan, does this song have a special significance to you? When I hear certain songs that were popular during significant events in my life, they evoke strong emotions. I am almost transported back in time, remembering exactly where I was and what I was doing. Is it the same for you?

Thank you for being able to appreciate the song too, Kannagi.

Truly, I fell in love with both versions from the start, decades ago, as both romantic joy, and forlorn heartbreak.

I think the clever pairing of 2 melodies and arrangements to 1 versatile lyrics caught my pattern-seeking mind.

And this time, I just had to get out of my head and into print, such a memorable pattern. 🙂
