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