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