moonlight shadow

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 riddle 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 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 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.
