Th-e last that e -ev-er she saw him
Carr-ied aw-ay by a moon-light sha-dow.
He passed on wor-ri-ed and war-ning
Carr-ied aw-ay by a moon-light sha-dow.
Lost in a ri-ver last sa-tur-day night
Far aw-ay on the o -o -ther side.
He was caught in the mid-dle of a des-per-ate
And she could-n't find how to push through
Th-e trees that whis-per in the eve-ning
Carr-ied aw-ay by a moon-light sha-dow.
Sing a song of sor-row and grie-ving
Carr-ied aw-ay by a moon-light sha-dow.
All she saw was a sil-houette of a gun
Far aw-ay on the o -o -ther side.
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she could-n't find how to push through
I stay
I pray
I see you in hea-ven far aw-ay
I stay
I pray
I see you in hea-ven far aw-ay
Four a-m in the mor-ning
Carr-ied aw-ay by a moon-light sha-dow.
I watched your vi-i-si-on for-ming
Carr-ied aw-ay by a moon-light sha-dow.
St-ar was light in a sil-ver-y night
Far aw-ay on the o -o -ther side.
Will you come to talk to me this ni-g-ht
But she could-n't find how to push through
I stay
I pray
I see you in hea-ven far aw-ay
I stay
I pray
I see you in hea-ven far aw-ay
Far aw-ay on the o -o -ther side.
Caught in the mid-dle of a hun-dred and five
The night was hea-vy but the air was ali-ve
But she could-n't find how to push through
Carr-ied aw-ay by a moon-light sha-dow.
Carr-ied aw-ay by a moon-light sha-dow.
Far aw-ay on the o -o -ther side.
