Watch the clip, to go with the song
It's just so full of longing & evocative images

The old lady, as she's packing & looking at the photos
The first time I ever watched/listened to it, I'll admit, I practically had tears in my eyes

It's not just me, if you read the first comments



Digressing slightly, I can't watch Jenny Agutter, in 'The Railway Children', in the final platform scene, without tears either
(doesn't happen with the remake, filmed on the Bluebell Railway, though!!)
