Hey everyone, quick disclaimer, I've lived in Brooklyn now for about six years and I
love it very much.
I would definitely say that New York is my home.
But I've always loved this song.
I've always loved the songwriting mastery of Jim Croce.
And when I first moved here, I had some challenges to overcome and some learning to do.
And in those very early days, I definitely felt the loneliness of this song more than
I do now.
Anyway, with that said, enjoy.
