Terrapin Station (水龟车站) (2015 Remastered Version) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)[00:00:00]
Written by:Jerry Garcia/Robert Hunter[00:00:01]
Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme suggesting rhythm[00:00:14]
That will not forsake you till my tale is told and done[00:00:22]
While the firelight's aglow[00:00:32]
Strange shadows from the flames will grow[00:00:35]
Till things we've never seen will seem familiar[00:00:39]
Shadows of a sailor forming winds both foul and fair all swarm[00:00:50]
Down in car lisle he loved a lady many years ago[00:00:57]
Here beside him stands a man a soldier from the looks of him[00:01:07]
Who came through many fights but lost at love[00:01:14]
While the story teller speaks a door within the fire creaks[00:01:25]
Suddenly flies open and a girl is standing there[00:01:32]
Eyes alight with glowing hair all that fancy paints as fair[00:01:42]
She takes her fan and throws it in the lion's den[00:01:49]
Which of you to gain me tell will risk uncertain pains of hell[00:02:00]
I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance[00:02:07]
The sailor gave at least a try the soldier being much too wise[00:02:17]
Strategy was his strength and not disaster[00:02:24]
The sailor coming out again the lady fairly leapt at him[00:03:10]
That's how it stands today you decide if he was wise[00:03:17]
The story teller makes no choice[00:03:27]
Soon you will not hear his voice[00:03:31]
His job is to shed light and not to master[00:03:34]
Since the end is never told we pay the teller off in gold[00:04:21]
In hopes he will come back but he cannot be bought or sold[00:04:27]
Inspiration move me brightly[00:04:51]
Light the song with sense and color[00:04:58]
Hold away despair more than this I will not ask[00:05:01]
Face of mysteries dark and vast[00:05:08]
Statements just seem vain at last[00:05:13]
Some rise some fall some climb to get to terrapin[00:05:18]
Counting stars by candlelight all are dim but one is bright[00:05:35]
The spiral light of Venus rising first and shining best[00:05:42]
On from the northwest corner of a brand new crescent moon[00:05:48]
Crickets and cicadas sing a rare and different tune[00:05:57]
Terrapin station[00:06:05]
In the shadow of the moon terrapin station[00:06:09]
And I know we'll get there soon terrapin[00:06:16]
I can't figure out terrapin[00:06:21]
If it's the end or beginning terrapin[00:06:24]
But the train's put its brakes on terrapin[00:06:27]
And the whistle is screaming terrapin[00:06:31]
While you were gone these faces filled with darkness[00:10:13]
The obvious was hidden with nothing to believe in[00:10:24]
The compass always points to terrapin[00:10:34]
Sullen wings of fortune beat like rain[00:10:45]
You're back in terrapin for good or ill again for good or ill again[00:10:51]
Terrapin[00:14:13]
Terrapin[00:14:27]
Terrapin[00:14:34]
Terrapin[00:14:47]
Terrapin[00:14:54]
Terrapin[00:15:08]
Some rise some fall some climb to get to terrapin[00:15:17]
Terrapin[00:15:35]
Terrapin[00:15:41]
Some rise some fall some climb to get to terrapin[00:15:51]
