Lyrics The Whole Of The Moon (Live At Radio City Music Hall) - Bleachers

I love you, New York City

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 climbed up the ladder
God, you know what it means
To be too high
Too far, too soon
You saw the whole of the moon

I was grounded
You stretched towards the sky
I was dumbfounded by truth
And you cut through the lies
When I saw the rain dirty valley
You saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent (hey)
You saw the whole of the moon

And your torch in your pocket
And the wind in your hair
You climbed up the ladder
God you know how it feels
To be too high
Too far, too soon
You saw the whole of the moon

The whole of the moon

Unicorns and scimatars
Palaces and piers
Over towers white ferryboats, wide oceans full of fears
And all the flags rags ferryboats
Scimitars and scarves
Every precious dream you've had
Underneath the sun

Yes, you climbed on the ladder
With the wind at your heels
You came like a comet
Blazing through the trails
All too high, too far, too soon
You saw the whole of the moon

The whole of the moon
You saw the whole of the moon
