INTRO . . . . . . . .
I pic-tured a rain-bow
You held it in your hands
I had flash-es
But you saw the plan
I wan-dered out in the world for years
While you just stayed in your room
I saw the cres-cent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon
You were there in the turn-stiles
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 groun-ded
While you filled the skies
- I was dumb-foun-ded by truth
You cut through lies
I saw the rain-dir-ty val-ley
You saw Brig-a-doon
- I saw the cres-cent
You saw the whole of the moon
I spoke a-bout wings
You just flew
I won-dered, I guessed and I tried
You just knew
I sighed
and you swooned
I saw the cres-cent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon
With a torch in your poc-ket
and the wind at your heels
You climbed on the lad-der
And you know how it feels
to get too far, too soon
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon
Hey yeah...
With the pin-na-cles
and can-non-balls
Pal-a-ces and piers
Tri-vets, to-wers and ten-ne-ments
Wide o-ceans full of tears
Flags, rags, fer-ry boats
Cy-lin-ders and scars
Eve-ry pre-cious dream-ing vi-sion
Un-der-neath the stars
You climbed - on the lad-der
with the wind in your sails
You came like a co-met
bla-zing your trail
Too high too far too soon
You saw the whole of the.....
