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