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 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.

I stay, I pray, I see you in heaven far away,
I stay, I pray, I 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,
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.

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