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