The dreamy, six-minute number – featuring typically-lush synth and piano – includes the opening lyrics: “Promise you’ll be with me in the end/ Say we’ll be together, and with no regret/ However far away/ You will remember me in time.

Later, Smith reflects on how his “world has grown old, and nothing is forever”. Watch a selection of fan-shot videos here:

Elsewhere in the concert, The Cure gave “A Strange Day”, “One Hundred Years” and “Primary” their tour debuts. Check out the clips of those performances above.

The group are currently playing as a six-piece, having welcomed guitarist/keyboardist Perry Bamonte back to the fold. Bamonte previously appeared in the line-up between 1990 and 2005.
