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