Terrapin Station (feat. Flyte) - Bombay Bicycle Club/Flyte.mp3

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Jerome Garcia
[00:15.145]Let my inspirations flow
[00:18.431]In token rhyme suggesting rhythm
[00:22.471]That will not forsake me
[00:25.259]Till my tale is told and done
[00:27.781]
[00:32.817]While the firelight's aglow
[00:36.105]Strange shadows from the flames will grow
[00:40.148]Till things we've never seen
[00:42.418]Will seem familiar
[00:46.484]
[00:50.258]Shadows of a sailor forming
[00:53.800]Winds both foul and fair all swarm
[00:57.831]Down in Carlisle,he loved a lady
[01:01.378]Many years ago
[01:03.662]
[01:08.239]Here beside him stands a man
[01:11.268]A soldier from the looks of him
[01:15.089]Who came through many fights
[01:17.611]But lost at love
[01:20.642]
[01:25.692]While the storyteller speaks
[01:29.229]A door within the fire creaks
[01:33.021]Suddenly flies open
[01:36.058]And a girl is standing there
[01:39.587]
[01:43.617]Eyes alight with glowing hair
[01:46.889]All that fancy paints as fair
[01:50.674]She takes her fan and throws it
[01:53.694]In the lion's den
[01:58.500]
[02:01.025]"Which of you to gain me,tell
[02:04.556]Will risk uncertain pains of hell?
[02:08.332]I will not forgive you
[02:11.104]If you will not take the chance"
[02:15.638]
[02:18.673]The sailor gave at least a try
[02:21.961]The soldier being much too wise
[02:26.249]Strategy was his strength
[02:28.783]And not disaster
[02:36.380]
[03:11.779]The sailor coming out again
[03:15.057]The lady fairly leapt at him
[03:18.833]That's how it stands today
[03:21.868]You deside if he was wise
[03:28.964]
[03:29.721]The storyteller makes no choice
[03:33.025]Soon you will not hear his voice
[03:37.074]His job is to shed light
[03:39.097]And not to master
[03:41.111]
[04:28.196]Since the end is never told
[04:30.950]We pay the teller off in gold
[04:34.745]In hopes he will come back
[04:37.525]But he cannot be bought or sold
[04:40.797]
[04:55.717]Inspiration move me brightly
[05:03.274]Light the song with sense and color
[05:06.816]Hold away despair
[05:09.583]More than this I will not ask
[05:13.649]Faced with with mysteries dark and vast
[05:18.937]Statements just seem vain at last
[05:24.727]Some rise,some fall,some climb
[05:35.134]To get to Terrapin
[05:36.902]
[05:42.232]Counting stars by candlelight
[05:45.784]All are dim but one is bright:
[05:49.816]The spiral light of Venus
[05:52.603]Rising first and shining best
[05:56.116]Oh,from the northwest corner
[06:00.170]Of a brand-new crescent moon
[06:06.238]Crickets and cicadas sing
[06:11.811]A rare and different tune
[06:14.102]
[06:14.845]Terrapin Station
[06:18.656]In the shadow of the moon
[06:21.696]Terrapin Station
[06:25.964]And I know we'll be there soon
[06:29.743]Terrapin - I can't figure out
[06:33.264]Terrapin - if it's the end or beginning
[06:36.795]Terrapin - but the train's put its brakes on
[06:40.353]Terrapin - and the whistle is screaming:
[06:43.655]Terrapin!
[06:46.954]
[11:30.645]While you were gone
[11:34.692]These faces filled with darkness
[11:41.782]The obvious was hidden
[11:48.085]With nothing to believe in
[11:52.126]The compass always points to Terrapin
[11:55.920]
[12:02.251]Sullen wings of fortune beat like rain
[12:08.827]You're back in Terrapin for good or ill again
[12:22.222]For good or ill again
