MOONLIGHT SHADOW (Lyrics)

The last time 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.

I stay, I pray, see you in heaven far a-way,
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 the silvery light,
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, see you in heaven far a-way,
I stay, I pray, see you in heaven, one day.

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
Far away on the other side.
The night was heavy but the air was alive
But she couldn’t find how to push through.

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
Far away on the other side,
Far away on the other side....
