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 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 glowing 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

I stay, I pray
I see you in Heaven far away
I stay, I pray
I see you in Heaven one day

Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Oh, oh carried away by a moonlight shadow
Oh, oh far away on the other side
Oh, oh, and she couldn't find how to push through
