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