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 

Moonlight shadow, oh, 
Moonlight shadow 
Carried away by a moon, oh 
Moonlight shadow, oh, 
Moonlight shadow, far away 

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 

Moonlight shadow, oh, 
Moonlight shadow 
Carried away by a moon, oh 
Moonlight shadow, oh, 
Moonlight shadow, far away 

It was 4 am in the morning 
Carried away 
By a moonlight shadow 
I watched your vision forming 
Carried away 
By a moonlight shadow 

Star was glowing 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 

Moonlight shadow, oh, 
Moonlight shadow 
Carried away by a moon, oh 
Moonlight shadow, oh, 
Moonlight shadow, far away
