Hi Steve,

A beautiful melody that you keep listening to.
When listening I thought at what moment do the vocals come in to sing that beautiful poem/lyrics?
And they didn't! But then I understood how this song works. And it works!
I kept reading the lines over and over while this melody continued. And yes, they also sounded, more than a bit, 'floydish' as Floyd wrote.
So very, very enjoyable.
