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,
