Triangle (Remastered Lp Version) - Gordon Lightfoot[00:00:00]
Oh the gist of it all is the first day of fall[00:00:04]
Is the day when my ship will set sail[00:00:08]
The best of all friends will say good bye again[00:00:12]
There's still time for one last glass of ale[00:00:15]
We'll sail away proudly[00:00:20]
Our backs to the wall on a southwind[00:00:22]
And lots of good cheer[00:00:25]
And when we've looked over the white cliffs of dover[00:00:28]
We'll be in bahama next year[00:00:31]
From bermuda on down the triangle around us[00:00:38]
Will teach us a lesson or two[00:00:41]
There's many a mate who unevenyly stated the course[00:00:45]
He had charted was true[00:00:50]
Don't worry about me he said[00:00:53]
Go down below give a certified sailor a turn[00:00:56]
Just sip on your rum or I'll give you my thumb[00:01:01]
And say son you got something to learn[00:01:05]
It's a mighty hard way to come down[00:01:09]
And a mighty fine way to be found[00:01:13]
So hand me my grip from an old sailing ship[00:01:17]
Put the kiss of the dawn on my lips[00:01:21]
With some luck tonight I might have her at my fingertips[00:01:25]
Oh the best of all things is the first day of spring[00:01:33]
When the water runs heavy and fast[00:01:37]
The mermaids have all gone to davy jones' ball[00:01:41]
And it seems their first trip was their last[00:01:45]
They had so much fun[00:01:49]
They don't wish to return[00:01:51]
To the beach where they lay all day long[00:01:52]
They'd rather stay under[00:01:57]
And boy it's no wonder[00:01:59]
When all the rock lobsters roll on[00:02:01]
It's a mighty fine way to be found[00:02:05]
Triangle triangle[00:02:11]
Oh see my ship dangle[00:02:13]
We're bound for bahama my friend[00:02:15]
Like lovers like danger[00:02:19]
Like babies like mangers[00:02:21]
But that's where my storybook ends[00:02:23]
Like soldiers of fortune believers in god[00:02:27]
And all kings without crosses to bear[00:02:31]
All sweepers and cleaners[00:02:35]
With no misdemeanors[00:02:37]
Should try the triangle out there[00:02:39]
It's a mighty hard way to come down[00:02:43]
And a mighty fine way to be found[00:02:47]
So hand me my grip[00:02:51]
From an old sailing ship[00:02:53]
Put the kiss of dawn on my lips[00:02:55]
With some luck tonight I might have her at my fingertips[00:02:59]
When she took her last tumble[00:03:07]
The sea bottom rumbled[00:03:09]
There was no confusion or blame[00:03:11]
The captain said[00:03:15]
Men we must answer again to the sea so ye may not complain[00:03:16]
And as they lay sleeping down there in the deep[00:03:23]
With their faces turned up to the stars[00:03:26]
A tuna fish turned to a mermaid in bed and said[00:03:31]
There goes another sandbar[00:03:35]
It's a mighty hard way to come down[00:03:39]
And a mighty fine way to be found[00:03:43]
So hand me my grip[00:03:47]
From an old sailing ship[00:03:49]
Put the kiss of the dawn on my lips[00:03:51]
With some luck tonight[00:03:57]
I might have her at my fingertips[00:03:58]
