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