Monlight 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 the 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 a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was the 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

(Chorus)
I stay, I pray
See you in heaven far away
I stay, I pray
See you in heaven one day

Four AM in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Stars moved slowly in the 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

(Chorus)
(instrumental)
Far away on the other side *faded*

Caught in the middle of a hundred and five...
The night was heavy but the air was alive
But she couldn't find how to push through

(3 x Chorus)

The last time ever she'd see him
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
The crowd gather just beneath him
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

Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Carried away by a moonlight shadow

Far away on the other side
But she couldn't find how to push through
