I'm still driving my mom's car, so the radio sets are not what I'm accustomed to. I was scanning stations until I came to a Canadian one playing oldies, and this song came on.
For some reason I've always loved this song, called "The Last Farewell," recorded by Roger Whittaker in 1971, which became a hit in 1975. It always felt so romantic. It makes me feel like I did when I first read Georgette Heyer novels, or when I watched swashbuckling movies in my teens, or when I read Cavalier poets (I could not love thee, dear, so much / Loved I not honour more).
