Irene Sankoff and David Hein - 38 Planes (Reprise)/Somewhere In the Middle of Nowhere lyrics

[BEVERLEY] (Spoken) The winds start to pick up, 50 mile an hour winds. We have been here too long. We're still on the ground, there's a hurricane coming, And I'm thinking, 'We're running out of time. We have to leave. We have to leave now'. [COMPANY] One plane then another. And then nine planes then another. And then thirteen planes and another. Nineteen planes , twenty-two, twenty-four, twenty-nine, thirty-two... Thirty-eight, thirty-eight, thirty Thirty-eight, thirty-eight, thirty Thirty-eight, thirty-eight, thirty Thirty, thirty, thirty-eight [BEVERLEY] Ladies and Gentlemen if you look out your windows. Underneath all that rain is Maine. We just crossed the Canadian border. Welcome back to the US of A! [?] Looking out the window at the road underneath [?] And though he's here next to me, in a second he'll go. [KEVIN 1] Looking out the window [KEVIN 2] Kevin, talk to me please! [?] And out the window we see [COMPANY] A place we all know below! [?] Is this on? Oh, it's on. Sorry everyone, Hi! Like most everyone, I am sorry saying goodbye. So I wanted to thank them for all that they did. So I'm doing just that, and I'm pa**ing a hat. For the people who gave up their time, gave up their town. So let's give them a scholarship! Pa** the hat down! Cause- [COMPANY] Somewhere, in the middle of nowhere. In the middle of who knows where. You'll find- Something. In the middle of nowhere, In the middle of clear, blue air, You found your heart but left a part of you behind. [DIANE] (Spoken) Nick and I sit together and I just- I wanna say something. But we're leaving and it's over. [NICK] (Spoken) And then she starts crying And I don't know what to say. So, I just put my arm around her and go to kiss her on the forehead, to comfort her [DIANE] (Spoken) Well there was some turbulence, And honestly, I just thought he missed. So I- [BEVERLEY] Ladies and Gentlemen if you look out your windows You won't want to miss this- We just entered Texas! [COMPANY] Somewhere, in the middle of nowhere. In the middle of who knows where. (who knows where) You'll find- Something. In the middle of nowhere, In the middle of clear, blue air, You found your heart but left a part of you behind. [?] (Spoken) Everyone's drinking and comparing stories [?] Where'd you stay? What'd you do? [DIANE] (Spoken) But mostly Nick and I spend the plane ride home canoodling in the back. [NICK] (Spoken) At one point, a flight attendant comes around saying- [FLIGHT ATTENDANT] (Spoken) Hot towel? Hot towel? Cold towel? [COMPANY] Somewhere in between the pace of life and work and where you're going. Something makes you stop and notice and you're finally in the moment. Somewhere, in the middle of nowhere. In the middle of who knows where. (who knows where) You'll find- Something. In the middle of nowhere, In the middle of clear, blue air, You found your heart but left a part of you behind. [BEVERLEY] Ladies and Gentlemen put your seat backs and tray tables up! Right below us is the city where I grew up. Coming round past the field then the wheels touch the ground. Taxing, we're all cheering, "We're down!" Thanking everyone, "Thank you for flying American!" Hugging them, hugging my crew cause we're home again. Pa** the gate up the stairs and we're there! And he's waiting in line. No I'm fine, Tom. I'm fine.
