The Whole of the Moon - Chris Evans Breakfast Show – Live

Hey

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
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
Struck for the stars, 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 flew the skies
I was dumbfounded by truths
You cut through lies

I saw the rain-dirty valley
You saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent, hey-hey-hey-hey
You saw the whole of the moon

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I spoke about wings (la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
You just flew (la-la-la)
I wondered, I guessed, and I tried
You just knew (la-la)

I sighed (la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
But you swooned (la-la-la-la)
I saw the crescent (la-la, la)
You saw the whole of the moon (la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
The whole of the moon (la-la-la-la-la-la-la)

With a torch in your pocket and the wind at your heels
You climbed on the 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, hey

Unicorns and cannonballs, palaces and piers
Trumpets, towers, tenements, oceans full of tears
Flags, rags, ferry boats, scimitars and scarves
Every precious dream and vision underneath the stars

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
The whole of the moon
