lirik lagu gordon lightfoot - triangle (1988 version)

[verse 1]
oh, the gist of it all is the first day of fall
is the day when my ship will set sail
when the best of all friends will say goodbye again
there’s still time for one last glass of ale
we’ll sail away proudly, our backs to the wall
on a south wind and lots of good cheer
and when we’ve looked over the white cliffs of dover
we’ll be in bahama next year

[verse 2]
from bermuda on down the triangle around us
will teach us a lesson or two
there’s many a mate who unevenly stated
the course he had charted was true
“don’t worry ’bout me,” he said, “go down below
give a certified sailor a turn
just sip on your rum or i’ll give you my thumb and say
son, you got something to learn”

[chorus]
it’s a mighty hard way to come down
and a mighty fine way to be found
so hand me my grip from an old sailing ship
put the kiss of the dawn on my lips
with some luck tonight i might have her at my fingertips
[verse 3]
oh, the best of all things is the first day of spring
when the water runs heavy and fast
the mermaids have all gone to davy jones’ ball
and i swear their first trip was their last
they had so much fun they don’t wish to return
to the beach where they lay all day long
they’d rather stay under and boy, it’s no wonder
when all the rock lobsters roll on

[chorus]
it’s a mighty fine way to be found

[verse 4]
triangle, triangle, oh, see my ship dangle
we’re bound for bahama, my friend
like lovers, like danger, like babies, like mangers
but that’s where my storybook ends
like soldiers of fortune, believers in god
and all kings without crosses to bear
all sweepers and cleaners with no misdemeanors
should try the triangle out there

[chorus]
it’s a mighty hard way to come down
and a mighty fine way to be found
so hand me my grip from an old sailing ship
put the kiss of the dawn on my lips
with some luck tonight i might have her at my fingertips
[verse 5]
when she took her last tumble the sea bottom rumbled
there was no confusion or blame
the captain said, “men, we must answer again
to the sea so ye may not complain”
and as they lay sleeping down there in the deep
with their faces turned up to the stars
a tuna fish turned to a mermaid in bed and said
“there goes another sandbar”
