Not running does not mean forgetting how.

English intimate folk direction · steel-string fingerpicking and answering fiddle

The narrator no longer runs, yet the knowledge remains. Asked by a grandson to demonstrate, he offers his hands: a skill can travel onward in another form. Age and ability are not reduced to present or absent.

Public notes describe a 58 BPM pulse, fingerpicked steel-string guitar and answering fiddle around an aged male register, short phrases and tremulous held notes. Follow the unresolved endings and small breaths. The intended vocal character does not establish a performer’s age.

Read the lyrics
[Verse 1] I still know how to run I just do not do it now the knowing did not leave me when the doing took a bow [Chorus] It is all still in here the turning and the speed the body keeps the recipe long past the need [Verse 2] My grandson asks me, show him I tell him, watch my hands the hands can still explain it better than the man [Chorus] It is all still in here the turning and the speed the body keeps the recipe long past the need
