irene sankoff and david hein – i am here lyrics
[beulah, spoken]
anyway, i get lunch set up, labeling anything that’ll go bad with the date and time. i let the pants out for one of the pilots who’s been enjoying our cooking, make a balloon animal for a crying toddler, and then i check on hannah, leaving messages for anyone she can reach
[hannah]
i am here
i am here on an island
h-llo? h-llo? it’s me again
yeah, my son
he’s with rescue 2
any news?
i am his mother
i’m far away, stuck here
i’m trying to find out if –
(spoken)
fine. i’ll hold again
(sung)
i should be down there
and checking the hospitals
putting up signs
doing something, instead i am
here
i am here in canada
i am telling you, listen
my son, he takes risks
he’s not missing; he’s helping or hurt
he’ll get out of this
yes, i keep trying
and yes, here’s the number
and yes, at the legion in gander, i’ll be right here
i should be there
when it’s over and done
when he comes through the door and says
“i’m home, mom.”
i should be there for my son
but instead i am
here
i am here
[beulah, spoken]
she leaves message after message for her son, until there’s no more room on his answering machine
[hannah]
all i know
is you are there
you are there
and i am here
