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