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 the riddle last 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 the 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.
i stay, i pray, i see you in heaven far away,
i stay, i pray, i 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.
star was glowin' in a slivery 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.
i stay, i pray, i see you in heaven far away,
i stay, i pray, i see you in heaven one day.
