Raja Vocative

[Verse 1: John Darnielle] A bird you would have liked brought the sky down But it was useless to see it without you around And in the unstoppable camera of my mind's eye I saw you and some foreign guy [Chorus] And I could hear your voice ringing I could hear you singing From all away across the country in Palm Springs I could hear you now [Verse 2] Your laughter tore through the New Jersey night And I can't stand it, but I'm all right Stood out on the balcony and I took a look around And a bird we would have loved the sight of brought the sky down [Chorus]
