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