le that Saturd

Far away on th

He was caught 

              
in the middle 

     
of a desperate

 fight
            
And she couldn

             
't find how to

      
 push through


[Verse 2]

            
The trees that

             
 whisper in th

  
e evening
             
Carried away b

             
y a moonlight

Carried away b

             
y a moonlight 


shadow

             
All she saw wa

    
s a silhouette

 of a gun
           
Far away on th

  
e other side.
             
He was shot si

             
x times by a m

an on the run
            
And she couldn

             
't find how to

      
 push through


[Chorus]

      
I stay I pray
            
I see you in h

I stay I pray
            
I see you in h

      
eaven far away

Four am in the

 
 morning
             
Carried away b

             
y a moonlight 


shadow
            
I watched your

        
 vision formin

g
             
Carried away b

             
y a moonlight 


shadow

             
Star was light

      
 in a silvery 

night
           
Far away on th

  
e other side
             
Will you come 

              
to talk to me 


this night
            
But she couldn

             
't find how to

      
 push through


[Chorus]

      
I stay I pray
            
I see you in h

      
eaven far away

      
I stay I pray
            
I see you in h

      
eaven far away
