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