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