The previous sentence of "We are still neighbors thousands of miles away" means that we know each other no matter how far we are. It comes from "Farewell to Li Shaofu in Weicheng" written by Zhang Jiuling in the Tang Dynasty.
Original text:
Send off Nanchang Wei and leave the pavilion to the west to wait for spring.
The wild flowers are endless to look at, and the forest birds are still fresh to listen to.
Farewell to Qingmen Road, return to Xuan Baimajin.
We know each other no matter how far we are, but we are still neighbors thousands of miles away.
Beautiful wildflowers can be seen all over the place, and the chirping of birds in the forest is still refreshing.
Farewell to the county town and embark on the road back home, returning to the car and heading towards Baimajin.
Bodies who are close friends are like neighbors regardless of distance. Thousands of miles apart.
