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