Moonlight Shadow (Extended Version) Lyrics by Mike Oldfield

Moonlight Shadow (Extended Version)

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 the 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 AM in the morning,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
I watched your vision forming,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.

A star was glowing in the 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.

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.

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

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

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

The last time ever she'd see him,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
The crowd gathered just to leave him,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.

Caught in the middle of a hundred in five,
Far away on the other side.
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...
She couldn't find how to push through...
