Moonlight Shadow - Mike Oldfield & Maggie Reilly




"Moonlight Shadow" es una canción pop escrita por el multiinstrumentista británico Mike Oldfield y lanzada como sencillo en mayo de 1983 e incluida en el álbum Crises de ese mismo año. Fue interpretada por la vocalista escocesa Maggie Reilly. Hasta la fecha, ha sido el tema más exitoso de Mike Oldfield junto a Tubular Bells. Mike Oldfield afirmó que la muerte de John Lennon podría haber influido inconscientemente en la creación de la canción.

Hoy he estado en la Mina.... no la de trabajar.... la otra... la disco que hay en La Vall, y han pinchado una versión disco que destroza de manera insospechada esta canción... Es bueno ir a la Mina una vez al año... te genera anticuerpos para otro año más 8P


Letra:

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 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.
Four a.m. in the morning,
carried away by a moonlight shadow.
i watched your vision forming,
carried away by a moonlight shadow.
stars roll slowly in a silvery night,
far away on the other side.
will you come to terms with 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 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.
but she couldn't find how to push through.
