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