This is vintage Floyd.

That opening, the meeting with the counsellor ... grabs one's attention immediately.

When you hit those high notes, and then go back on "I'm not ready" ... omg. And the spacing before "just a memory" ...

Which one of you two came up with these lyrics? You're both magicians, anyway, but this IS top-notch magical work:

"i can't bear to have the future... just faded photographs
a love too quickly buried with a needless epitaph"

I could take this apart and praise it until kingdom come. Thing is, this song works incredibly as a whole, as well as the sum of its parts. And you deliver it ... omg. "if I lose you, there'll be nothing left of me" ... "... just a memory" ... You are the storyteller par excellence, and you always have something incredible to tell. And what an incredible musician you really are.
