Terrapin Station (Live at Spectrum Philadelphia November 6 1979) - Grateful Dead[00:00:00]

November 6 1979) - Grateful Dead[00:00:09]

Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme [00:00:33]

Suggesting rhythm [00:00:39]

That will not forsake you [00:00:41]

Till my tale is told and done [00:00:45]

While the firelight's aglow [00:00:54]

Strange shadows from the flames will grow [00:00:57]

Till things we've never seen will seem familiar [00:01:02]

Shadows of a sailor [00:01:15]

Forming winds both foul and fair all swarm [00:01:18]

Down in Carlisle he loved a lady many years ago [00:01:23]

Here beside him stands a man [00:01:36]

A soldier from the looks of him [00:01:40]

Who came through many fights but lost at love [00:01:44]

While the story teller speaks [00:01:57]

A door within the fire creaks;[00:02:01]

Suddenly flies open and a girl is standing there [00:02:05]

Eyes alight with glowing hair [00:02:18]

All that fancy paints as fair [00:02:22]

She takes her fan and throws it in the lion's den [00:02:26]

Which of you to gain me tell [00:02:39]

Will risk uncertain pains of hell [00:02:43]

I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance [00:02:47]

The sailor gave at least a try [00:03:00]

The soldier being much too wise [00:03:04]

Strategy was his strength and not disaster [00:03:08]

The sailor coming out again [00:04:02]

The lady fairly leapt at him [00:04:06]

That's how it stands today [00:04:11]

You decide if he was wise [00:04:13]

The story teller makes no choice [00:04:23]

Soon you will not hear his voice [00:04:27]

His job is to shed light and not to master [00:04:31]

Since the end is never told [00:07:55]

We pay the teller off in gold [00:07:58]

In hopes he will come back [00:08:02]

But he cannot be bought or sold [00:08:05]

Terrapin Station[00:08:10]

Inspiration move me brightly [00:08:31]

Light the song with sense and color;[00:08:40]

Hold away despair more than this I will not ask [00:08:44]

Faced with mysteries dark and vast [00:08:52]

Statements just seem vain at last [00:08:59]

Some rise some fall some climb [00:09:06]

To get to Terrapin [00:09:17]

Counting stars by candlelight [00:09:26]

All are dim but one is bright;[00:09:30]

The spiral light of Venus [00:09:35]

Rising first and shining best [00:09:38]

On from the northwest corner [00:09:42]

Of a brand new crescent moon [00:09:47]

While crickets and cicadas[00:09:53]

Sing a rare and different tune [00:09:56]

Terrapin Station [00:10:03]

In the shadow of the moon Terrapin Station [00:10:08]

And I know we'll get there soon Terrapin Station [00:10:16]

I can't figure out Terrapin [00:10:23]

If it's the end or beginning Terrapin [00:10:27]

But the train's put its brakes on Terrapin [00:10:31]

And the whistle is screaming TERRAPIN[00:10:35]
