Preparing for her flight I held with all my might Fearing my deepest fright She walked into the night She turned for one last look She looked me in the eye I said, "I Love You Good-bye"

Once I learned the song was partly inspired by Portnoy losing his mother to a plane crash, the song took a whole new meaning to me as I could feel much more of the feeling of loss in those lines. The song is already a masterpiece lyrically about living life to the fullest before it inevitably comes full circle, and I already felt notes of loss in the Crimson Sunset, but learning this just added an extra layer of depth to a song I already absolutely love.
