L0L you have a great Christmas!

Other great Waterboys tunes are, "This is the Sea" "Room to Roam" "The Ladder" "The Stolen Child" "A Man is in Love" "The Raggle Taggle" "Has anybody here seen Hank?" "How long will I Love You?"

Have fun L0L

"Whole of the Moon" from the CD "This is the Sea"

I pictured a rainbow
you held it in your hands
I had flashed
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

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 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 know
I sighed
... but you SWOONED!
I saw the crescent
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 ferryboats
scimitars and scarves
every precious dream and vision
underneath the starts
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
