Listen here and pre-order the album on vinyl, CD, and digital formats: LYRICS Like a common loon I started hearing birds Birdsong everywhere a lark in the shower From the night to the morning after Warblers and wrens, hymn at my throat Shook and quivering, I could have crowed Oh I could have crowed I was snared by your wrist I know what the cost is The octaves of consequence I know the cost of flight is landing and I know I could take it like a man I know I could take it like a man Falls of fascinations the sky was leaking light like your eyes do that shipwrecked expression I need more words for blue Trilling in the tree the way I measure you Fractured thirteenths that grin that you give When you want me to quit Falling further and falcon swift I know what the cost is In the octaves of consequence I know the cost of flight is landing And I know I can take it like a man I know I can take it like a man I know I can take it like a man Falling further and falcon swift I know what the cost is In the octaves of consequence I know the cost of flight is landing And I know I can take it like a man CREDITS Recorded live at the Historic Columbia Studio A in Nashville, TN.
