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