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