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, yeah      You saw the whole of the moon   The whole of the moon      You were there in the turnstiles   With the wind at your heels   Just stretched for the stars   And you know how it feels      To reach too high   Too far   Too soon   You saw the whole of the moon      Now it's ground while you filled the skies   I was dumb founded by truth, you cut through lies   I saw the rain dirty valley, oh, you saw Brigadoon, I saw the crescent   You saw the whole of the moon      Yeah      I spoke about wings, you just flew   Well I wondered, I guessed and I tried, you just knew what I sighed   But you swooned, I saw the crescent   You saw the whole of the moon, the whole of the moon      The torch in your pocket   The wind on your heels   You climbed on a ladder   And you know how it feels      To reach too high   Too far   Too soon   You saw the whole of the moon, whole of the moon      Unicorns and cannon balls, palaces and piers   Trumpets, towers, and tenaments, wide oceans full of tears   Flags, rags, ferryboats, scimitar's and scarves   Every precious dream and vision underneath the stars      Yeah, you climbed on the ladder   With the wind in your sails   You came like a comet   Blazing your trail      Too high   Oh, too far   Too soon   You saw the whole of the moon, whole of the moon, yeah      Did you see the whole of the moon?
