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