Terrapin Station (Live at Oakland Auditorium Arena December 28 1979) - Grateful Dead[00:00:01]

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

Suggesting rhythm [00:00:38]

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

Till my tale is told and done [00:00:44]

While the firelights aglow [00:00:52]

Strange shadows from the flames will grow [00:00:55]

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

Shadows of a sailor [00:01:11]

Forming winds both foul and fair all swarm [00:01:14]

Down in carlisle [00:01:18]

He loved a lady many years ago [00:01:20]

Here beside him stands a man [00:01:30]

A soldier from the looks of him [00:01:34]

Who came through many fights but lost at love [00:01:38]

While the story teller speaks [00:01:50]

A door within the fire creaks;[00:01:53]

Suddenly flies open [00:01:57]

And a girl is standing there [00:02:00]

Eyes alight with glowing hair [00:02:09]

All that fancy paints as fair [00:02:12]

She takes her fan and throws it [00:02:16]

In the lions den [00:02:19]

Which of you to gain me tell [00:02:28]

Will risk uncertain pains of hell [00:02:31]

I will not forgive you[00:02:35]

If you will not take the chance [00:02:39]

The sailor gave at least a try [00:02:47]

The soldier being much too wise [00:02:51]

Strategy was his strength [00:02:54]

And not disaster [00:02:57]

The sailor coming out again [00:03:43]

The lady fairly leapt at him [00:03:47]

That's how it stands today you decide if he was wise [00:03:51]

The story teller makes no choice [00:04:02]

Soon you will not hear his voice [00:04:06]

His job is to shed light [00:04:10]

And not to master [00:04:12]

Since the end is never told [00:07:22]

We pay the teller off in gold [00:07:25]

In hopes he will comes back[00:07:29]

But he cannot be bought or sold [00:07:32]

Inspiration move me brightly [00:07:55]

Light the song with sense and color;[00:08:03]

Hold away despair [00:08:07]

More than this I will not ask [00:08:09]

Faced with mysteries dark and vast [00:08:13]

Statements just seem vain at last [00:08:19]

Some rise some fall some climb [00:08:25]

To get to terrapin [00:08:35]

Counting stars by candlelight [00:08:43]

All are dim but one is bright;[00:08:46]

The spiral light of venus [00:08:50]

Rising first and shining best [00:08:53]

On from the northwest corner [00:08:57]

Of a brand new crescent moon [00:09:01]

While crickets and cicadas sing [00:09:07]

A rare and different tune [00:09:13]

Terrapin station [00:09:16]

In the shadow of the moon [00:09:20]

Terrapin station [00:09:23]

And I know well get there soon terrapin[00:09:27]

I can't figure out terrapin [00:09:33]

If it's the end or beginning terrapin [00:09:36]

But the trains put it's brakes on terrapin [00:09:40]

And the whistle is screaming terrapin[00:09:44]
