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