Items
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
