Halfway in the USA

This is just a short post to recognise that I have now been here in New York for 50 days. And that I only have another 50 days left in this beautiful city.

So I thought I'd share with you lyrics from a song I've been listening to today that has got me a bit worked up about the conflicting emotions of being away from home and being here.

It's February Star from my favourite album of all time - Foo Fighters' The Colour & The Shape.

"Even though
I watched you come and go
how was I to know
You'd steal the show

Hanging on
here until I'm gone
right where I belong
just hanging on

Even though
I pass this time alone
somewhere so unknown
it heals the soul."
