Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme suggesting rhythm [00:00:29]

That will not forsake you till my tale is told and done [00:00:37]

[00:00:43]

While the firelight's aglow strange shadows from the flames will grow [00:00:48]

Till things we've never seen will seem familiar [00:00:55]

[00:01:00]

Shadows of a sailor forming winds both foul and fair all swarm [00:01:06]

Down in carlisle he loved a lady many years ago [00:01:14]

Here beside him stands a man a soldier from the looks of him [00:01:25]

Who came through many fights but lost at love [00:01:33]

While the story teller speaks a door within the fire creaks [00:01:44]

Suddenly flies open and a girl is standing there [00:01:52]

Eyes alight with glowing hair all that fancy paints as fair [00:02:02]

She takes her fan and throws it in the lion's den [00:02:10]

Which of you to gain me tell will risk uncertain pains of hell [00:02:21]

I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance [00:02:29]

The sailor gave at least a try the soldier being much too wise [00:02:39]

Strategy was his strength and not disaster [00:02:47]

The sailor coming out again the lady fairly leapt at him [00:03:36]

That's how it stands today you decide if he was wise [00:03:42]

The story teller makes no choice soon you will not hear his voice [00:03:53]

His job is to shed light and not to master [00:04:01]

Since the end is never told we pay the teller off in gold [00:05:05]

In hopes he will come back but he cannot be bought or sold [00:05:12]

Inspiration move me brightly light the song with sense and color [00:05:37]

Hold away despair more than this I will not ask [00:05:49]

Face of mysteries dark and vast statements just seem vain at last [00:05:55]

Some rise some fall some climb to get to terrapin [00:06:07]

Counting stars by candlelight all are dim but one is bright [00:06:24]

The spiral light of venus rising first and shining best [00:06:32]

On from the northwest corner of a brand new crescent moon [00:06:39]

While crickets and cicadas sing a rare and different tune [00:06:49]

Terrapin station [00:06:58]

In the shadow of the moon terrapin station [00:07:02]

And I know we'll get there soon terrapin [00:07:09]

I can't figure out terrapin if it's the end or beginning terrapin [00:07:14]

But the train's put its brakes on terrapin [00:07:21]

And the whistle is screaming terrapin [00:07:25]
