Cover art for Ten days lyrics by Missy Higgins

I totally agree with you Tyruunie. I am Australian, living overseas so I can totally relate to what you're saying, and what Missy is trying to express. I got this CD two days before I moved back after Christmas break and 'Ten Days' just sums up the feeling of loosing someone perfectly. When you're at home, with the people you love, you feel accepted, safe and warm. When you're away by yourself, you feel foreign, out of place and lonely. I feel like Missy left a loved one behind, and for her, no matter what, that person is home.

"You said this hill looks far too steep, if I'm not even sure it's me you wanna keep." I feel like this deals with the issues of long distance relationships.
