I pictured a rainbow   you held in your hands   I had flashes   but you saw then plan   I wondered 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 at 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 moon!      I was grounded   while you filled the skies   I was dumbfounded by truths   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   but 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 reach too high   too far   Too soon   you saw the whole of the moon!   The whole of the moon!      Unicorns and cannonballs,   palaces and piers,   Trumpets, towers, and tenemets,   wide oceans full of tears,   Flag, rags, ferry boats,   scimitars and scarves,   Every precious dream and vision   underneath the stars      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!
