So
So
So you'll call?
As soon as I get back
And then he left
And then I was alone
Back to the way that things were
Back to the simple and plain
For five days the weather had been so nice
But as they boarded, it started to rain
Beulah]
At the end of the day
Everyone left
We all tried to go back to normal, except
The town was more quiet and
Somehow far emptier
We all looked the same
But we're different than we were
The gym was a sight
As I staked the last cot
Thank-you's written everywhere
And things they forgot
The board of health says
Clean it up - every part
So we start
7: 42 a.m
Sunday
September 16th
After five days, they just ran
The zamboni over the ice
And played hockey
With the Plane People gone
Gander Town Council declares the
State of emergency over and I head home
We were all exhausted - just spent
Most of us had been up for
Five days straight working
But somehow I can't sleep
So I sit down and turn on the television
And I just start crying
I hadn't let myself cry the whole time
Something's gone
Out the airplane window, I can see Manhattan
And there's still smoke
And suddenly I'm afraid all over again
And there are others afraid too
Something's over
I know Newark airport
You could pull a truck over on the side
Of the turnpike
And shoot a grenade launcher
At a plane coming in
Something's done
But nothing happens
I drive Kevin back to his place
We don't say much
Something's missing
I go straight to his firehouse
Part of me wondered if they
Just weren't telling me
But... they still don't know
Something's changed
My flat is the same as I left it
But emptier
Quieter
I start to unpack
And I find the camera
Something's rearranged
On the way to my restaurant
I drop my daughter at school
But she won't go in
She says she's scared
What do I tell her?
Something's strained
Back at my dad's house
I look out the window
At this view I've looked at my whole life
And now a part of it
Something's missing
Something's missing
Kevin breaks up with me
And then he quits and moves back home to New York
And I miss him
I miss his jokes
Something's lost
Nick and I call each other when we can
But... it's awful
The only reason we met was because
This terrible thing happened
Something's cost
I go down to Ground Zero
Which is like the end of the world
It's literally still burning
Something's not
My dad asks
"Were you okay where you were stranded?"
How do I tell him that I wasn't just okay
I was so much better
Something's missing
I phone American and say
"I'm ready to go wherever you want to send me."
But they say take a few days off
I phone every day and I am back at the airport on Thursday
And it's empty. Silent
It's just - a different place
And I stop what few passengers there are and I say
"Thank you for still flying."
Hello
You've reached Gander Academy
This is Beulah Davis
How can I help you?
...He's gone
It's over
...Oh, no. I'm so sorry, Hannah
I'm so sorry
You are here
At the end of a moment
At the end of the world
You are here
On the edge of the ocean
Where the story ends
Where the river meets the sea
Here
Something's gone
Something's over
Across the Atlantic
At the office
In an airport
In my house
On an island
Something's rearranged
In a classroom
At the station
In my car
And wherever you are
(Something's gone)
You are here
