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