Terrapin Station(Live at Assembly Center, Baton Rouge, October 16, 1977)

Terrapin Station [Live at Assembly Center, Baton Rouge, October 16, 1977[00:00:00]

Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme suggesting rhythm[00:00:45]

That will not forsake you till my tale is told and done[00:00:53]

While the firelights aglow strange shadows from the flames will grow[00:01:04]

Till things weve never seen will seem familiar[00:01:12]

Shadows of a sailor forming winds both foul and fair all swarm[00:01:23]

Down in carlisle he loved a lady many years ago[00:01:31]

Here beside him stands a man a soldier from the looks of him[00:01:42]

Who came through many fights but lost at love[00:01:50]

While the story teller speaks a door within the fire creaks[00:02:01]

Suddenly flies open and a girl is standing there[00:02:09]

Eyes alight with glowing hair all that fancy paints as fair[00:02:20]

She takes her fan and throws it in the lions den[00:02:28]

Which of you to gain me tell will risk uncertain pains of hell[00:02:39]

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

The sailor gave at least a try the soldier being much too wise[00:02:58]

Strategy was his strength and not disaster[00:03:06]

The sailor coming out again the lady fairly leapt at him[00:03:55]

That's how it stands today you decide if he was wise[00:04:03]

The story teller makes no choice soon you will not hear his voice[00:04:14]

His job is to shed light and not to master[00:04:23]

Since the end is never told we pay the teller off in gold[00:05:38]

In hopes he will return but he cannot be bought or sold[00:05:45]

Inspiration move me brightly light the song with sense and color[00:06:12]

Hold away despair more than this I will not ask[00:06:25]

Faced with mysteries dark and vast statements just seem vain at last[00:06:32]

Some rise some fall some climb to get to terrapin[00:06:45]

Counting stars by candlelight all are dim but one is bright[00:07:04]

The spiral light of venus rising first and shining best[00:07:12]

On from the northwest corner of a brand new crescent moon[00:07:19]

While crickets and cicadas sing a rare and different tune[00:07:30]

Terrapin station[00:07:39]

In the shadow of the moon terrapin station[00:07:44]

And I know well get there soon terrapin[00:07:52]

I can't figure out terrapin if its the end or beginning terrapin[00:07:58]

But the trains put its brakes on terrapin[00:08:05]

And the whistle is screaming terrapin[00:08:09]
