Moonlight Shadow by Mike Oldfield

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 a 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
see you in heaven far away.
i stay, i pray
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.
stars roll slowly in a silvery night,
far away on the other side.
will you come to terms with me this night,
but she couldn't find how to push through.
I stay, i pray
see you in heaven far away.
i stay, i pray
see you in heaven one day.
Far away on the other side.
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five.
the night was heavy and 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.
