《Terrapin Station(Live in New Jersey， April 1， 1988)》歌词

[00:00:00] Terrapin Station (Live in New Jersey April 1 1988) - Grateful Dead

[00:00:32] Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme

[00:00:37] Suggesting rhythm

[00:00:40] That will not forsake you

[00:00:42] Till my tale is told and done

[00:00:50] While the firelight's aglow

[00:00:53] Strange shadows from the flames will grow

[00:00:57] Till things we've never seen will seem familiar

[00:01:07] Shadows of a sailor

[00:01:10] Forming winds both foul and fair all swarm

[00:01:15] Down in Carlisle

[00:01:16] He loved a lady many years ago

[00:01:25] Here beside him stands a man

[00:01:29] A soldier from the looks of him

[00:01:32] Who came through many fights

[00:01:35] But lost at love

[00:01:43] While the story teller speaks

[00:01:46] A door within the fire creaks

[00:01:50] Suddenly flies open

[00:01:53] And a girl is standing there

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

[00:02:04] All that fancy paints as fair

[00:02:07] She takes her fan and throws it

[00:02:10] In the lion's den

[00:02:18] Which of you to gain me tell

[00:02:21] Will risk uncertain pains of hell

[00:02:25] I will not forgive you

[00:02:28] If you will not take the chance

[00:02:36] The sailor gave at least a try

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

[00:02:43] Strategy was his strength and not disaster

[00:03:29] The sailor coming out again

[00:03:33] The lady fairly leapt at him

[00:03:36] That's how it stands today

[00:03:38] You decide if he was wise

[00:03:47] The story teller makes no choice

[00:03:50] Soon you will not hear his voice

[00:03:54] His job is to shed light

[00:03:56] And not to master

[00:05:38] Since the end is never told

[00:05:41] We pay the teller off in gold

[00:05:45] In hopes he will come back

[00:05:47] But he cannot be bought or sold

[00:06:10] Terrapin Station

[00:06:14] Inspiration move me brightly

[00:06:18] Light the song with sense and color

[00:06:22] Hold away despair

[00:06:25] More than this I will not ask

[00:06:29] Faced with mysteries dark and vast

[00:06:35] Statements just seem vain at last

[00:06:41] Some rise some fall some climb

[00:06:51] To get to Terrapin

[00:06:59] Counting stars by candlelight

[00:07:02] All are dim but one is bright

[00:07:06] The spiral light of Venus

[00:07:09] Rising first and shining best

[00:07:13] On from the northwest corner

[00:07:17] Of a brand new crescent moon

[00:07:23] While crickets and cicadas sing

[00:07:29] A rare and different tune

[00:07:32] Terrapin Station

[00:07:36] In the shadow of the moon

[00:07:39] Terrapin Station

[00:07:43] And I know we'll get there soon

[00:07:47] Terrapin I can't figure out

[00:07:50] Terrapin if it's the end or beginning

[00:07:54] Terrapin

[00:07:56] But the train's put it's brakes on

[00:07:58] Terrapin

[00:07:59] And the whistle is screaming

[00:08:02] Terrapin
