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