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 from the other side
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And he 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 from the other side
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And he couldn't find how to push through

She stays and she prays
See you in heaven, far away
She stays and she prays
See you in heaven one day

Four A.M. in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
She watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Stars move slowly in the summer night
Far away from the other side
Will you come to talk to her tonight?
'Cause she couldn't find how to push through
She stays and she prays
See you in heaven, far away
She stays and she prays
See you in heaven one day

Moonlight shadow
Moonlight shadow

Stars move slowly in the summer night
Far away on the other side
Will you come to talk to her tonight?
'Cause she couldn't find how to push through

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
The last that ever she saw him
He was carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on, worried and warning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow

The last that ever she saw him
He was carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on, worried and warning
He was carried away by a moonlight
Moonlight shadow
Passed on, worried and warning
He was carried away
The last time the girl ever saw him
(Moonlight shadow)
He was carried away by a moonlight shadow
