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