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