I'm not sure why, but this is my favourite of all Knopfler's songs, and I've listened to them all hundreds of times! It is just a beautiful, tender, yet haunting song. It has special meaning to me also because one of the first times I met my wife was on a train platform in London, and I will never forget how beautiful she looked that day. 'Like an Angel', as Knopfler says.

@Simdru I didn´t have the same experience but I had thid album on repeat as i drove from England to Spain in 2008 and this song always sounded so human, so believable. I can´t quite articulate it.
