[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 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.
[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.
[Bridge:]
I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven far away, I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven one day.
[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.
[Bridge:]
I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven far away, I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven one day.
