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