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