"We saluted the Statue of Liberty"

This is a great song. I especially like Sufjan's banjo on this one. He has a knack for fitting that banjo unobtrusively into songs in both main and supporting roles.

My guess is that this song is about when Rosie moved to New York to further her music career, and all of the emotions that came along with that.
