Noctifer Birmingham

John Darnielle

[Verse 1: John Darnielle]
I had to stop and catch my breath
When the telephone rang out as loud as death
It was three in the morning
There was a low drone of katydids behind your voice
And then

[Refrain: John Darnielle and Rachel Ware]
I came down from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
And I saw you by the highway

[Verse 2: John Darnielle]
You asked me if the north was all right
And I said it got kind of cold at night
I could feel your bones shivering way down there in Birmingham and then

[Refrain: John Darnielle and Rachel Ware]
I came down from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
And I saw you by the highway

[Verse 3: John Darnielle]
You reminded me of all the things you'd given up forever
And you asked about the children
And you asked about the weather
And then

[Refrain: John Darnielle and Rachel Ware]
I came down from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
And I saw you by the highway
