The Whole Of The Moon
Jennifer Warnes Song Lyrics
(Mike Scott) I pictured a rainbow You held it in your hands I had flashes 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 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 But 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 a 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 Popcorn and cannonballs All the season's fears Trumpets, towers, and tenaments Wide oceans full of tears Flags, rags, ferryboats Senators and scars Every precious dream and vision Underneath the stars You climbed on a 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 |
