Because of the pandemic, I’m separated from my wife for 7 months now. Because both of us have to work for a living. I’m in Iceland while she’s in Shanghai. This song touches my heart and sings my emotions.
Maybe that is not too bad. News said a lot of couple argue a lot during quarantine. Some of them just want to divorce. Thinking positive side. You two miss and love each other more and more 🥰
Yl Zhao提到電影《醉鄉民謠》。（英語：Inside Llewyn Davis）是一部2013年美國音樂題材劇情片，柯恩兄弟編劇執導，奧斯卡·伊薩克、凱莉·墨里根與賈斯汀·提姆布萊克主演。故事改編自美國民謠歌手Dave Van Ronk（1936-2002年）逝世後2005年出版的回憶錄，講述在1960年代一位鄉村音樂創作歌手在紐約發生的故事。 我今年70，這首 Five Hundred Miles 是 我學唱的第一首洋歌，當時年齡大概12歲上下，18歲離家從軍時，在火車上與夥伴們一路唱到目的地。
歌詞 If you missed the train I'm on You will know that I am gone You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles, A hundred miles, a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles Lord, I'm one, Lord, I'm two, Lord, I'm three, Lord, I'm four Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home Away from home, away from home, Away from home, away from home Lord, I'm five hundred miles away from home Not a shirt on my back Not a penny to my name Lord, I can't go back home this ole way This ole way, this ole way, This ole way, this ole way, Lord, I can't go back home this this ole way If you missed the train I'm on You will know that I am gone You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles, A hundred miles, a hundred miles, You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
I've left home when I was a teenager, 40years after, I went back to visit my hometown, the place that have grown up, only realized I don't know no body and no body knows me. It's a mix felling that I can't even describe.
I know man. Not belonging anywhere and maybe thinking you missed out - lost a lot along the way. Missing things that never were. People who are gone forever too.
加油。 yeah, when i decided to leave minneapolis, minnesota and come back to malaysia. I have the same feeling too. I missed the place, people, food and everything... hope you have a great start in your home country. 😸👍

I think this song is about yearning of our youth rather our past places. I remember when I left China in 1989 when I was 10. The friends who lost I have touch. But the places are just a skip and a hop away on a plane ride. Time... that's far and fading in our memories.
Guys, our Heavenly Father is calling you home. 亲爱的你啊，天父在召唤。 We’re the guests of this world, and have you asked yourself where your soul will be settled when you’re leaving. 我们是客旅，是寄居的。当那一日来临的时候，你的灵魂将在何处安放？ My dear, come to shelter under Jesus Christ. For he is calling you “come home, come home “ 天父所爱的孩子啊，圣子在告诉你回家吧，回到那永恒爱的家！ 爱你的人
I retruned to the place of my birth after 36 years. Most of the older folks Inknes have gone, nobody recognizes me, the old shophouses some still standing and most that do had lost their past glories. I visited the places I grew up as a kid walking barefooted. This song reminds me of the good old days where people were basically kind and respectful, eager to help those in needs and everybody knows almost everybody.
