《Terrapin Station(Live at the Spectrum， Philadelphia 4/6/82)》歌词

[00:00:00] Terrapin Station (Live at The Spectrum, Philadelphia 4/6/82) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)

[00:00:23] Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme

[00:00:29] Suggesting rhythm

[00:00:31] That will not forsake you

[00:00:34] Till my tale is told and done

[00:00:42] While the firelights aglow

[00:00:45] Strange shadows from the flames will grow

[00:00:49] Till things weve never seen will seem familiar

[00:01:01] Shadows of a sailor

[00:01:03] Forming winds both foul and fair all swarm

[00:01:08] Down in carlisle

[00:01:09] He loved a lady many years ago

[00:01:20] Here beside him stands a man

[00:01:23] A soldier from the looks of him

[00:01:27] Who came through many fights

[00:01:30] But lost at love

[00:01:38] While the story teller speaks

[00:01:42] A door within the fire creaks;

[00:01:46] Suddenly flies open

[00:01:49] And a girl is standing there

[00:01:57] Eyes alight with glowing hair

[00:02:01] All that fancy paints as fair

[00:02:04] She takes her fan and throws it

[00:02:08] In the lions den

[00:02:16] Which of you to gain me tell

[00:02:19] Will risk uncertain pains of hell

[00:02:24] I will not forgive you if you will

[00:02:28] Not take the chance

[00:02:35] The sailor gave at least a try

[00:02:39] The soldier being much too wise

[00:02:43] Strategy was his strength

[00:02:45] And not disaster

[00:03:31] The sailor coming out again

[00:03:34] The lady fairly leapt at him

[00:03:38] Thats how it stands today

[00:03:41] You decide if he was wise

[00:03:49] The story teller makes no choice

[00:03:53] Soon you will not hear his voice

[00:03:57] His job is to shed light

[00:04:00] And not to master

[00:06:10] Since the end is never told

[00:06:13] We pay the teller off in gold

[00:06:17] In hopes he will return

[00:06:20] But he cannot be bought or sold

[00:06:44] Inspiration move me brightly

[00:06:52] Light the song with sense and color;

[00:06:56] Hold away despair

[00:06:59] More than this I will not ask

[00:07:03] Faced with mysteries dark and vast

[00:07:10] Statements just seem vain at last

[00:07:16] Some rise some fall

[00:07:24] Some climb to get to terrapin

[00:07:35] Counting stars by candlelight

[00:07:39] All are dim but one is bright;

[00:07:43] The spiral light of venus

[00:07:46] Rising first and shining best

[00:07:50] On from the northwest corner

[00:07:54] Of a brand new crescent moon

[00:08:01] While crickets and cicadas sing

[00:08:07] A rare and different tune

[00:08:10] Terrapin station

[00:08:14] In the shadow of the moon

[00:08:18] Terrapin station

[00:08:22] And I know well be there soon

[00:08:26] Terrapin

[00:08:28] I can't figure out terrapin

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

[00:08:35] But the trains put its brakes on terrapin

[00:08:39] And the whistle is screaming terrapin
