Moonlight shadow　　　　Mike Oldfield

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 river last 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 silhouette1 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
Star was light in a 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

Caught in the middle of a hundred and five ( 注 )
The night was heavy but the air was alive
But she couldn't find how to push through
月光的影子　　　　　　麦克欧菲尔德

她最后一次见到他
因为月光的影子而失去意识
他发出了警讯
因为月光的影子而失去意识
上个周末夜在河里迷失
在远远的那一边
他被困在一场亡命的打斗中
但她不晓得该如何是好

树林在黄昏时分低语
因为月光的影子而失去意识
唱一首关于忧愁与悔恨的歌
因为月光的影子而失去意识
她看到的是一把枪的轮廓
在远远的那一边
他被一个奔跑的男子连开六枪
但她不晓得该如何是好

我停留，我祈求
能在遥远的天堂和你相见
我停留，我祈求
总有一天在天堂和你相见

凌晨四点钟
因为月光的影子而失去意识
我注视着你的幻影逐渐形成
因为月光的影子而失去意识
银色的夜里星光熠熠
在远远的那一边
今晚你会来找我谈谈吗？
但她不晓得该如何是好

在众多人群中被捕
夜色沉重但空气中充满生气
但她不晓得该如何是好
　这是一首麦克欧菲尔德( Mike Oldfield )为纪念约翰蓝侬所写的歌，收录在1983年的专辑「Crises 危机」中，由英国女歌手 Maggie Reilly 担纲演唱，后面有关于这位歌者背景的英文简介。歌中出现多次的她，应是指约翰蓝侬日裔美籍的妻子小野洋子 ( Yoko Ono )。
　1980 年 12 月 8 日深夜，约翰蓝侬录完音回到纽约中央公园自家住宅门前，黑暗中窜出一个人影，喊了一声他的名字，然后对着他连开六枪，约翰蓝侬中枪后倒地不起，于送医途中死亡，残年四十岁。警方事后调查，发现凶嫌马克大卫查普曼，来自檀香山，二十五岁，是披头四的歌迷，极度崇拜约翰蓝侬，但有双重人格及精神分裂倾向。
　警方还发现，约翰蓝侬死前数小时，曾在住所外面为凶手马克大卫查普曼在自己的专辑「Double Fantasy 双重幻想」上签名，唱片封面是约翰蓝侬与妻子小野洋子拥吻的画面，是两人的音乐心血结晶，上面除了签名，还押上他过世的年份 1980 年。
　关于 Maggie Reilly 这位歌手
　Best known for her lengthy2 collaboration3 with famed electronic composer Mike Oldfield, singer Maggie Reilly was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1956. She began her performing career during the early 1970s as a member of the local blues4 band Joe Cool; later renamed Cado Belle5, the group's self-titled debut6 LP was issued in 1976. An EP followed a year later, but Cado Belle dissolved soon after, with Reilly turning to session work before signing on with the trio Riotous7 Assembly. She met Oldfield in 1979, and a year later contributed vocals8 to his album QE2; they collaborated9 on three more projects — Five Miles Out, Crises and Discovery — before Reilly made her solo debut in 1984 with a cover of the classic "As Tears Go By." She spent the latter half of the decade focusing on raising a family, returning to music only intermittently10, including a 1989 reunion with Oldfield on his album Earth Moving; finally, in 1992 Reilly issued her debut solo LP Echoes, followed a year later by Midnight Sun. Elena appeared
in 1996.
