I pictured a rainbowYou held it in your handsI had flashesBut you saw the planI wandered out in the world for yearsWhile you just stayed in your roomI saw the crescentYou saw the whole of the moonThe whole of the moonYou were there in the turnstilesWith the wind at your heelsYou stretched for the starsAnd you know how it feelsTo reach too highToo farToo soonYou saw the whole of the moonI was groundedWhile you filled the skiesI was dumbfounded by truthYou cut through liesI saw the rain dirty valleyYou saw BrigadoonI saw the crescentYou saw the whole of the moonI spoke about wingsYou just flewI wondered I guessed and I triedYou just knewI sighed... but you swooned!I saw the crescentYou saw the whole of the moonThe whole of the moon!Unicorns and cannonballsPalaces and piersTrumpets towers and tenementsWide oceans full of tearsFlags rags ferryboatsScimitars and scarvesEvery precious dream and visionUnderneath the starsYes you climbed on the ladderWith the wind in your sailsYou came like a cometBlazing your trailToo highToo farToo soonYou saw the whole of the moon
