38 Planes (Reprise) / Somewhere In The Middle Of Nowhere

Lyrics

The winds start to pick up, 50 mile an hour winds
 We've 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
 One plane, then another
 And then nine planes, then another (seven)
 And then 13 planes and another (19 planes)
 And another (22), 24, 29, 32
 38, 38, 38, 38, 38, 38, 38, 38, 38, 30, 30, 30, 38
 Ladies and gentlemen, if you look out the windows
 Underneath all that rain is Maine
 We've just crossed the Canadian boarder
 Welcome back to the US of A
 Lookin' out the window at the world underneath
 And though he's here next to me, any second he'll go
 Lookin' out the window, Kevin talk to me please
 And out the window we see (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've did
 So I'm doing just that, and I'm passing a hat
 For the people who gave up their time
 And they gave up their town
 So let's give them a scholarship
 Pass the hat down, 'cause
 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've found your heart and left a part of you behind
 Nick and I sit together and I just
 I wanna say something, but we're leaving and it's over
 And then she starts to cry
 And I don't know what to say
 So I just put my arm around her
 And I go to kiss her on the forehead to comfort her
 Well, there was some turbulence
 And honestly, I just thought he missed, so I-
 Ladies and gentlemen, if you look out your windows
 You won't want to miss this, we just entered Texas
 Somewhere in the middle of nowhere
 In the middle of who knows
 (Who knows) where you'll find
 Something in the middle of nowhere
 In the middle of clear blue air
 You've found your heart and left a part of you behind
 Everyone's drinking and comparing stories
 Where'd you stay? What'd you do?
 But mostly Nick and I
 Spent the plane ride home, canoodling in the back
 At one point, a flight attendant comes around saying
 "Hot towel? Hot towel?"
 "Cold towel?"
 Somewhere in between the place of
 Life and work and where you're going
 Something makes you stop and you'll notice
 And you're finally in the moment
 Somewhere in the middle of nowhere
 In the middle whose knows where
 (Who knows) where you'll find
 Something in the middle of nowhere
 In the middle of clear blue air
 You've found your heart, and left a part of you behind
 Ladies and gentlemen, put your seats back and tray tables up
 Right below us, is the city where I grew up
 Come around, pass the field and then the wheels touch the ground
 Taxi in where all cheering we're down
 Thanking everyone, thank you for flying in American
 Hugging them, hugging my crew 'cause we're home again
 Pass the gate up the stairs, we're there
 And he's waiting in line
 No, I'm fine, Tom
 I'm fine
