Terrapin Station(Live at Winterland, December 31, 1978)

Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme suggesting rhythm [00:00:39]

That will not forsake you till my tale is told and done [00:00:46]

[00:00:53]

While the firelight's aglow [00:00:58]

Strange shadows from the flames will grow [00:01:02]

Till things we've never seen will seem familiar [00:01:07]

Shadows of a sailor forming winds [00:01:18]

Both foul and fair all swarm [00:01:23]

Down in Carlisle he loved a lady many years ago [00:01:26]

[00:01:33]

Here beside him stands a man [00:01:38]

A soldier from the looks of him [00:01:42]

Who came through many fights but lost at love [00:01:46]

While the story teller speaks a door within the fire creaks [00:01:58]

Suddenly flies open and a girl is standing there [00:02:06]

Eyes alight with glowing hair all that fancy paints as fair [00:02:17]

She takes her fan and throws it in the lion's den [00:02:25]

Which of you to gain me tell will risk uncertain pains of hell [00:02:37]

I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance [00:02:45]

The sailor gave at least a try the soldier being much too wise [00:02:56]

Strategy was his strength and not disaster [00:03:04]

The sailor coming out again the lady fairly leapt at him [00:03:54]

That's how it stands today [00:04:02]

You decide if he was wise [00:04:05]

[00:04:08]

The story teller makes no choice [00:04:14]

Soon you will not hear his voice [00:04:18]

His job is to shed light and not to master [00:04:22]

Since the end is never told we pay the teller off in gold [00:06:30]

In hopes he will come back [00:06:38]

But he cannot be bought or sold [00:06:41]

Inspiration move me brightly [00:07:05]

Light the song with sense and color [00:07:14]

Hold away despair more than this I will not ask [00:07:18]

Face of mysteries dark and vast [00:07:25]

Statements just seem vain at last [00:07:32]

Some rise some fall some climb to get to Terrapin [00:07:38]

Counting stars by candlelight all are dim but one is bright [00:07:58]

The spiral light of Venus rising first and shining best [00:08:06]

On from the northwest corner of a brand new crescent moon [00:08:13]

While crickets and cicadas sing a rare and different tune [00:08:24]

Terrapin Station [00:08:34]

In the shadow of the moon [00:08:39]

Terrapin Station [00:08:42]

And I know we'll get there soon [00:08:47]

Terrapin (I can't figure out) [00:08:51]

Terrapin (if it's the end or beginning) [00:08:55]

Terrapin (but the train's put its brakes on) [00:08:59]

Terrapin (and the whistle is screaming) [00:09:03]

Terrapin [00:09:07]
