Something’s Missing Lyrics

[DIANE]
So...

[NICK]
So...

[DIANE]
So you'll call?

[NICK]
As soon as I get back

[NICK & DIANE]
And then (s)he left
And then I was alone

[JANICE]
Back to the way that t'ings were

[OZ]
Back to the simple and plain

[DWIGHT]
For five days the weather had been so nice

[BONNIE]
But as they boarded, it started to rain

[BEULAH]
At the end of the day
After everyone left

[OZ]
We all tried to go back to normal, except...

[CLAUDE]
The town was more quiet
And somehow far emptier

[BONNIE]
We all looked the same
But we're different than we were

[BEULAH]
The gym was a sight
As I stacked the last cot

[DWIGHT]
Thank-you's written everywhere
And things they forgot

[CLAUDE]
The board of health says
Clean it up - every part

[COMPANY]
So we start

[CLAUDE]
7:42 a.m

[COMPANY]
Sunday

[CLAUDE]
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 workin'
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

[COMPANY]
Something's gone

[BOB]
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

[COMPANY]
Something's over

[BOB]
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

[COMPANY]
Something's done

[BOB]
But nothing happens

[KEVIN T]
I drive Kevin back to his place
We don't say much

[COMPANY]
Something's missing

[HANNAH]
I go straight to his firehouse
Part of me wondered if they
Just weren't telling me
But... they still don't know

[COMPANY]
Something's changed

[NICK]
My flat is the same as I left it
But emptier
Quieter
I start to unpack
And I find the camera

[COMPANY]
Something's rearranged

[ALI]
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?

[COMPANY]
Something's strained

[BOB]
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

[COMPANY]
Something's missing

[KEVIN T]
Kevin breaks up with me
And then he quits and moves back home to New York
And I miss him
I miss his jokes

[COMPANY]
Something's lost

[DIANE]
Nick and I call each other when we can
But... it's awful
The only reason we met was because this terrible thing happened

[COMPANY]
Something's cost

[BOB]
I go down to Ground Zero
Which is like the end of the world
It's literally still burning

[COMPANY]
Something's not

[BOB]
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

[COMPANY]
Something's missing

[BEVERLEY]
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 in 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 flyin'."

[BEULAH]
Hello
You've reached Gander Academy
This is Beulah Davis
How can I help you?

[HANNAH]
...He's gone
It's over

[BEULAH]
...Oh, no. I'm so sorry, Hannah
I'm so sorry

[HANNAH]
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

[BEULAH]
Where the river meets the sea

[HANNAH]
Here

[COMPANY]
Something's gone
Something's over

[NICK]
Across the Atlantic

[KEVIN T]
At the office

[BEVERLEY]
In an airport

[DIANE]
In my house

[BOB]
On an island

[COMPANY]
Something's rearranged

[BEULAH]
In a classroom

[JANICE]
At the station

[OZ]
In my car

[COMPANY]
And wherever you are
(Something's gone)
You are here
