I pictured a rainbow
|
You held it in your hand
|
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 moon
|
|
You 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 high)
|
Too far (too far)
|
Too soon (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
|
Yeah
|
|
I spoke about wings
|
You just flew I wondered
|
I guessed and I tried
|
You just knew and I sighed
|
And you swooned
|
I saw the crescent
|
You saw the whole of the moon
|
The whole of the moon
|
The whole of the moon
|
|
The torch in your pocket
|
And the wind on your heels
|
You climbed on the ladder
|
And you know how it feels
|
To get too high (too high)
|
Too far (too far)
|
Too soon (too soon)
|
You saw the whole of the moon
|
The whole of the moon
|
|
Unicorns and cannonballs
|
Palaces and Piers
|
Trumpets, towers, and tenaments
|
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 high)
|
Too far (too far)
|
Too soon (too soon)
|
You saw the whole of the moon
|
|
The whole of the moon
|
Yeah, you saw the whole of the moon
|
