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