(Verse 1)

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 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.

(Verse 2)

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.

(Verse 3)

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.

(Refrain:)

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