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