|
I pictured a rainbow, you held it in your hands |
|
I had flashes but you saw then 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 moon |
|
You were there in the turnstiles with the wind at your heels |
|
You stretched for the starts and you know how it feels |
|
To reach too high, too far, too soon |
|
You saw the whole of the moon |
|
I 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 moon |
|
I spoke about wings you just flew |
|
I wondered I guessed and I tried, you just knew |
|
I sighed and you swooned |
|
I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moon |
|
The whole of the moon |
|
With a torch in your pocket and the wind at your heels |
|
You climbed on the 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 yeah |
|
Unicorns 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 stars |
|
Yes, you climbed on the 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 moon |
|
Oh, how [Incomprehensible] did you see the whole of the moon |
