Lady With a Fan （Live） - Grateful Dead

Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme,

suggesting rhythm, Miscellaneous

That will not forsake you,

till my tale is told and done.

While the firelight's aglow,

strange shadows from the flames will grow,

Till things we've never seen will seem familiar.

Shadows of a sailor, forming winds both foul and fair all swarm.

Down in Carlisle, he loved a lady many years ago.

Here beside him stands a man, a soldier from the looks of him,

Who came through many fights, but lost at love.

While the story teller speaks, a door within the fire creaks;

Suddenly flies open, and a girl is standing there.

Eyes alight, with glowing hair, all that fancy paints as fair,

She takes her fan and throws it, in the lion's den.

Which of you to gain me, tell, will risk uncertain pains of hell?

I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance.
