The last that ever she saw him,
|
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
|
He passed on worried and warning,
|
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
|
Lost in a river that Saturday night,
|
Far away on the other side.
|
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
|
And she couldn't find how to push through.
|
|
The trees that whisper in the evening,
|
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
|
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving,
|
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
|
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun,
|
Far away on the other side.
|
He was shot six times by a man on the run
|
And she couldn't find how to push through.
|
|
[ Chorus ]
|
|
I stay, I pray
|
See you in heaven far away.
|
I stay, I pray
|
See you in heaven one day.
|
|
Four a.m. in the morning,
|
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
|
I watched your vision forming,
|
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
|
Stars move slowly in a silvery night,
|
Far away on the other side.
|
Will you come to talk to me this night,
|
But she couldn't find how to push through.
|
|
[ Repeat Chorus ]
|
|
Far away on the other side.
|
|
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five.
|
The night was heavy and the air was alive,
|
But she couldn't find how to push through.
|
|
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
|
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
|
Far away on the other side.
|
But she couldn't find how to push through.
