这首歌最初是英国的Mike Oldfield创作的，很多网上的资料都说这首歌是纪念被枪杀的John Lennon On December 8th 1980, in front of the Dakota, a supposed fan, Mark David Chapman, fired five shots, hitting John in the chest. By the time he arrived at the hospital, John Lennon was dead. 1980年12月8日，马克．查普曼伪装成一个歌迷，在列侬的公寓旁边徘徊了很久。那天晚上，当列侬从录音棚返回家中的时候，查普曼请列侬在他的签字本上签名。当时他内心曾进行过激烈的斗争，但最后仍然举起手枪朝着列侬的后背连开了5枪。和Moonlight Shadow中所写的He was shot six times by a man on the run倒是有点类似；但看了原版的MTV之后，我却觉得这首歌应该和John Lennon的被刺并没有直接联系
似乎男主角死于一场决斗中，这倒象是普希金，但不知道普希金的妻子娜达丽亚会不会这样来怀念他．查了一下资料，曾经有国外的歌迷透露，Oldfield说起这首歌的灵感来源于Tony Curtis主演的电影Houdini，霍迪尼传(Houdini)是美国派拉蒙公司于1953年7月2日上映的电影，故事梗概如下：在举世闻名的幻觉大师哈利胡迪尼逝世十年后，他的遗孀贝丝找上一位灵媒,来为她召唤亡夫的鬼魂，之后便以倒叙手法回顾胡迪尼传奇的一生
但我觉得创作这首歌的才华出众但却忧郁无比的Mike Oldfield未必有所特指，或许没必要多去考证了，只需要静静溶入歌中空灵纯净的月光中即可

下面是歌词:
The last that ever she saw him她最后一次见到他
Carried away by a moonlight shadow月夜带走了他
He passed on worried and warning他带着忧郁和警示离开了人世
Carried away by a moonlight shadow消失在月夜
Lost in a riddle that Saturday night迷失在星期六的夜晚
Far away on the other side从此天各一方
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight在生死之战中他被抓住
And she couldn\'t find how to push through而她却不知如何是好
The trees that whisper in the evening夜晚的树林飒飒响动
Carried away by a moonlight shadow月夜带走了他
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving唱着悲伤的歌曲
Carried away by a moonlight shadow消失在月夜
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun她看到一支枪的轮廓
Far away on the other side在遥远的另一边
He was shot six times by a man on the run他被逃跑的男子打中六枪
And she couldn\'t find how to push through而她却不知如何是好
I stay, I pray我坚信，我祈祷
See you in heaven far away会在遥远的天堂见到你
I stay, I pray我坚信，我祈祷
See you in heaven one day某一天会在天堂见到你
Four a.m. in the morning凌晨四点
Carried away by a moonlight shadow月夜带走了他
I watched your vision forming我看着你的影子
Carried away by a moonlight shadow消失在月夜
Stars roll slowly in a silvery night银灰色的夜空中星星在微微闪动
Far away on the other side在遥远的地方
Will you come to terms with me this night这样的夜晚你愿意和我达成共识吗？
But she couldn\'t find how to push through但她却不知如何去面对
I stay, I pray 我坚信，我祈祷
See you in heaven far away会在遥远的天堂见到你
I stay, I pray我坚信，我祈祷
See you in heaven one day某一天会在天堂见到你
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five 在战争中被捕
The night was heavy but the air was alive 夜色凝重但气氛紧张
But She couldn\'t find how to push through 她不知如何面对
Far away on the other side.在遥远的地方
The night was heavy but the air was alive夜色凝重但气氛紧张
But she couldn\'t find how to push through她不知如何面对
she couldn\'t find how to push through她不知如何面对
how to push through如何面对
