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