I saw the crescent But you saw the plan You held it in your hands While you just stayed in your room You saw the whole of the moon The whole of the moon I had flashes I pictured a rainbow I wandered out in the world for years |

|
Too far You stretched for the stars You saw the whole of the moon And you know how it feels To reach too high With the wind at your heels You were there in the turnstiles Too soon |

You cut through lies I saw the crescent You saw Brigadoon You saw the whole of the moon While you filled the skies I was dumbfounded by truth I saw the rain dirty valley I was grounded |

... but you swooned! I spoke about wings I sighed You saw the whole of the moon I saw the crescent You just flew You just knew The whole of the moon I wondered I guessed and I tried |

And you know how it feels You climbed on the ladder Too far You saw the whole of the moon Too soon And the wind at your heels With a torch in your pocket To get too high The whole of the moon! |

Wide oceans full of tears Scimitars and scarves Every precious dream and vision Unicorns and cannonballs Trumpets towers and tenements Flags rags ferryboats Underneath the stars Palaces and piers |

Yes, you climbed on the ladder Too high too far too soon You saw the whole of the moon With the wind in your sails Blazing your trail You came like a comet |
