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