Not Just Intonation CD

Not Just Intonation is the latest in a fine collection of some of the best songs to come out of Stand Easy yet. The innovative CD continues in the vein of timeless, traditional Celtic music alongside original rock and roll ballads. The strength of this album lies in the musicians' mastery of their instruments and Allan's ability to write songs that blend great melody, a driving rhythmic rock section and a fantastic storytelling voice.

 

Running in Your Shoes

You were crouching in the starting blocks

Waiting for the gun

You were gone before a sound rang out

No on your marks get set and go

No subtle hints to let me know

It was out of my control


(chorus)

Hey, I’ll be alright

Thanks for asking ‘bout me

It’s just one more lesson lived

Another blessing received

I’m just grateful today that I get to choose

Not to be running

Not to be running in your shoes


Every clock that’s ticking

Pulls the pain away

Pushes back the sky that tried to fall

I won’t let it drop round here

I can see things way too clear

You can take your baggage to go
