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