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
YOU SAW
THE WHOLE OF THE MOON
THE WHOLE OF THE MOON
MMM, 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 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
UNICORNS AND CANNONBALLS
PALACES AND PIERS
TRUMPETS, TOWERS
AND TENEMENTS
WIDE OCEANS FULL OF TEARS
FLAGS, RAGS, FERRY BOATS
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-OH-OH
DID YOU SEE
THE WHOLE OF THE MOON...
