Moonlight Shadow

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 river 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
 
4 AM in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow,
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
 
Stars move slowly 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
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 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.
