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.
[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.
