Items
I pictured a rainbow
The whole of the moon
While you just stayed in your room
I had flashes
I saw the crescent
You held it in your hands
But you saw the plan
You saw the whole of the moon
I wandered out in the world for years
 
You were there in the turnstiles
Too far
With the wind at your heels
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
Too soon
You stretched for the stars
You saw the whole of the moon
 
You saw the whole of the moon
You saw Brigadoon
I saw the rain dirty valley
I was grounded
While you filled the skies
You cut through lies
I saw the crescent
I was dumbfounded by truth
 
I saw the crescent
The whole of the moon
You just knew
I sighed
I wondered I guessed and I tried
You just flew
I spoke about wings
You saw the whole of the moon
... but you swooned!
 
You climbed on the ladder
With a torch in your pocket
Too far
And the wind at your heels
You saw the whole of the moon
Too soon
To get too high
The whole of the moon!
And you know how it feels
 
Flags rags ferryboats
Unicorns and cannonballs
Scimitars and scarves
Underneath the stars
Every precious dream and vision
Wide oceans full of tears
Trumpets towers and tenements
Palaces and piers
 
You came like a comet
Blazing your trail
With the wind in your sails
Yes, you climbed on the ladder
Too high too far too soon
You saw the whole of the moon
