Wonderful Journey

Is "500 miles" a long distance? I had never thought of the question before I heard the song "500 Miles".

One day, when I wandered among different blogs on the Internet, I was caught by the song in the music box of Vincent's blog and the feeling of being homesick revealed by the song.

Actually, I had listened to it and had stored it in my computer formerly. However, I have lived a simple but happy life with my parents and have never been far away from my home. Naturally, I can't have a complete understanding of the homesickness expressed in the song
