Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme suggesting rhythm [00:00:48]

That will not forsake you till my tale is told and done [00:00:55]

While the firelight's aglow [00:01:06]

Strange shadows from the flames will grow [00:01:09]

Till things we've never seen will seem familiar [00:01:14]

Shadows of a sailor forming winds both foul and fair all swarm [00:01:24]

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 [00:01:49]

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

Suddenly flies open and a girl is standing there [00:02:07]

Eyes alight with glowing hair all that fancy paints as fair [00:02:18]

She takes her fan and throws it in the lion's den [00:02:24]

Which of you to gain me tell [00:02:35]

Will risk uncertain pains of hell [00:02:39]

I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance [00:02:42]

The sailor gave at least a try the soldier being much too wise [00:02:53]

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

The sailor coming out again the lady fairly leapt at him [00:03:46]

That's how it stands today you decide if he was wise [00:03:53]

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

Soon you will not hear his voice [00:04:08]

His job is to shed light and not to master [00:04:11]

Since the end is never told we pay the teller off in gold [00:06:16]

In hopes he will come back but he cannot be bought or sold [00:06:24]

Terrapin Station [00:06:49]

Inspiration move me brightly [00:06:53]

Light the song with sense and color [00:06:58]

Hold away despair more than this I will not ask [00:07:01]

Face of mysteries dark and vast [00:07:08]

Statements just seem vain at last [00:07:14]

Some rise some fall some climb to get to Terrapin [00:07:20]

Counting stars by candlelight all are dim but one is bright [00:07:38]

The spiral light of Venus rising first and shining best [00:07:46]

On from the northwest corner of a brand new crescent moon [00:07:53]

While crickets and cicadas sing a rare and different tune [00:08:03]

Terrapin Station [00:08:12]

In the shadow of the moon Terrapin Station [00:08:16]

And I know we'll get there soon Terrapin Station [00:08:23]

I can't figure out Terrapin [00:08:29]

If it's the end or beginning Terrapin [00:08:32]

But the train's put its brakes on Terrapin [00:08:36]

And the whistle is screaming terrapin [00:08:40]
