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