[00:00:09] November 6 1979) - Grateful Dead

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

[00:00:39] Suggesting rhythm

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

[00:00:45] Till my tale is told and done

[00:00:54] While the firelight's aglow

[00:00:57] Strange shadows from the flames will grow

[00:01:02] Till things we've never seen will seem familiar

[00:01:15] Shadows of a sailor

[00:01:18] Forming winds both foul and fair all swarm

[00:01:23] Down in Carlisle he loved a lady many years ago

[00:01:36] Here beside him stands a man

[00:01:40] A soldier from the looks of him

[00:01:44] Who came through many fights but lost at love

[00:01:57] While the story teller speaks

[00:02:01] A door within the fire creaks;

[00:02:05] Suddenly flies open and a girl is standing there

[00:02:18] Eyes alight with glowing hair

[00:02:22] All that fancy paints as fair

[00:02:26] She takes her fan and throws it in the lion's den

[00:02:39] Which of you to gain me tell

[00:02:43] Will risk uncertain pains of hell

[00:02:47] I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance

[00:03:00] The sailor gave at least a try

[00:03:04] The soldier being much too wise

[00:03:08] Strategy was his strength and not disaster

[00:04:02] The sailor coming out again

[00:04:06] The lady fairly leapt at him

[00:04:11] That's how it stands today

[00:04:13] You decide if he was wise

[00:04:23] The story teller makes no choice

[00:04:27] Soon you will not hear his voice

[00:04:31] His job is to shed light and not to master

[00:07:55] Since the end is never told

[00:07:58] We pay the teller off in gold

[00:08:02] In hopes he will come back

[00:08:05] But he cannot be bought or sold

[00:08:10] Terrapin Station

[00:08:31] Inspiration move me brightly

[00:08:40] Light the song with sense and color;

[00:08:44] Hold away despair more than this I will not ask

[00:08:52] Faced with mysteries dark and vast

[00:08:59] Statements just seem vain at last

[00:09:06] Some rise some fall some climb

[00:09:17] To get to Terrapin

[00:09:26] Counting stars by candlelight

[00:09:30] All are dim but one is bright;

[00:09:35] The spiral light of Venus

[00:09:38] Rising first and shining best

[00:09:42] On from the northwest corner

[00:09:47] Of a brand new crescent moon

[00:09:53] While crickets and cicadas

[00:09:56] Sing a rare and different tune

[00:10:03] Terrapin Station

[00:10:08] In the shadow of the moon Terrapin Station

[00:10:16] And I know we'll get there soon Terrapin Station

[00:10:23] I can't figure out Terrapin

[00:10:27] If it's the end or beginning Terrapin

[00:10:31] But the train's put its brakes on Terrapin

[00:10:35] And the whistle is screaming TERRAPIN
