The Whole Of The Moon

I pictured a rainbow, you held it in your hands
I had flashes but you saw the plan
I wandered out in the world for years while you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moonYou were there in the turnstiles with the wind at your heels
You stretched for the stars and you know how it feels
To reach too high, too far, too soon
You saw the whole of the moonI was grounded while you filled the skies
I was dumbfounded by truth, you cut through lies
I saw the rain dirty valley, you saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moonI spoke about wings
you just flew
I wondered I guessed and I tried,
you just knew
I sighed......
but you swooned
I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moonWith a torch in your pocket and the wind at your heels
You climbed on a ladder and you know how it feels
To get too high, too far, too soon
You saw the whole of the moon, the whole of the moon, hey yeahUnicorns and cannonballs, palaces and piers
Trumpets, towers and tenements, wide oceans full of tears
Flags, rags, ferryboats, scimitars and scarves
Every precious dream and vision underneath the starsYes, you climbed on a ladder with the wind in your sails
You came like a comet,
blazing your trail
Too high,
too far,
too soon
You saw the whole of the moonOh, how well did you see the whole of the moon?
