Lyrics:

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 move slowly 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
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

Total shout out to the guitarist playing the bridges... as impeccable and golden as the singer.

[AdvancedGuy]

I just can't get enough of this version. With the tone and drops in her voice carrying song, I'd say that this is best cover version yet. Let's all take a moment to also say how amazing that bridge guitarist was.

[gyther]

As a non native english speaker I appreciate the purity of your voice and the clarity of your pronounciation. For me it's like if I could read the lyrics while you sing. Your cover is awesome. Many thanks from France.

[carlobrotto]

What can I say ? Blessed by the God of music, moving rendition.❤️

[MarshallOfficial]

I love her talent. I really love the hair-comb in her hair.

[timhinchcliffe]

Just to hear the voice of an angel makes life worth living.

I have to say that this cover is the best I've heard. This young lady has a golden voice. Simply beautiful rendition.

[probegtdriver]

She has a deeper voice than expected. And the nasal sounds are very soothing. Simply beautiful.

[KarolinaProtsenkoFansChannel]

[MrLogin]

[billybud]

Father on guitar adds a lot to this fine rendition.

[Zamppa]

She is with a voice of an angel...And don't even make me start with her outlooks.

I sure hope Mike and Maggie see and hear this. They both would definitely approve in my humble opinion.

[JhonnattanGonzalez]

First time I see this talented girl and only the first 30 seconds of the song were enough to follow her.

[MrDnhayes]

Emily Linge plays beautifully, and beautifully, and beautifully again. And sings, and sings, always beautifully again. English, Norwegian, and Spanish, in her own special language-always, beautifully again. And in moonlight shadows, too, a haunting ballad, beautifully again.❤

[docben]

One of the best rendition of the song. ❤🌠🎆🕊🌻🙋‍♂️🤩💖🎶

[Daniela_Germany]

Wait, is that a BMG Special he's playing the solo on? 🤩

[edcarr]

Such an extremely talented young lady. Vocally and musically.
