Train station guard: I don’t know this one personally yet it has been a few years now.

I keep seeing her come to this station just sitting on the same seat, but never getting on the train.

You know there’s been a lot of strange thing’s happening in this city.

And she sure has been acting quite strange but I don’t care because she’s such an elegant lady.

Old lady: “Sir...”

mind the gap.

Train station guard: May I help you?

Old lady: Those were the first words my husband ever spoke to me.

Train station guard: Would you like to sit down? Over here?

Old lady: Thank you. It’s all right.

You see…

forty years ago my husband and I met in this station.

We fell in love. We dated. We had a child.

So wonderful father

He had a beautiful voice.

Unfortunately, the talent scouts did not discover him, add his voice to myself.

Now this voice is with the city now, even though he's been gone for a few years

Listen…

Train station guard: that was your husband's voice that was on that recording before?

Old lady: That’s right. They replaced him.

I had no right to ask. But please, is it possible that I could get the tapes?

you know the decades i've been here listening to your husband's voice

Train station guard:…but actually there’s nothing I can do about it because today they just changed over the system.

Old lady: It’s ok. I understand.Train station guard: I am so sorry.

Since that day we spoke, I haven’t seen that woman return to this station.

Of course, she has no reasons to come back.

Time always has a way of making of things slip away till there’s nothing left.

(Music: It was a Tuesday mornin’ in May, and as I awoke.

I saw the sun against your fair face.

It was the years, lovely smile,

the breeze was fresh and throughout the garden lingered the sun to roses.

It was May and I cannot forget that we sang together.

The more time passes, the more I remember.

The air was fresh and the sun so sweet….

it was May… it was May.

Yes, I love of my heart… love of my heart..

You’re goin’ far away , you’re leavin’ me.

And I will count the hours, when will you return?

With nod I said, ’ I will return when the roses bloom again.’

And I said love of my heart, love of my heart….

You’re goin’ far away, you’re leavin’ me.

And I will count the hours, when will you return?

And you said, ‘I will return.’ When I share your voice again

I will return as promised….when the roses bloom… Man: Thank you. Thank you very much!

We will call you… by the way I’m just wondering if you could do me a favor?

Just record the line for me. Just say, ‘Mind the gap.’

Musician: ‘Mind the gap.’

Man: Can you just say it two more times?

Announcer: “Mind the gap…mind the gap….mind the gap.”

Train station guard: Madam, we were able to get your husband’s recording and reinstalled

not in all the city but at least this station.

Here, his voice is our mutual memory.

Old lady: Thank you.

Train station guard: Are you going somewhere?

Old lady: Well, Yes. I can go on from here now. I have my memories.

Train station guard: Wonderful! May I give you a hand?

Old lady: Oh, thank you!

“ Mind the gap.”
