Take a walk until the next dawn.
In the winter, rain and storms.

A disturbance in tranquility.

MOONLIGHT SHADOW

music and lyrics: Mike Oldfield
sung by: Maggie Reilly

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 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.

Chorus:
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 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.

Repeat Chorus

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.

IN HIGH PLACES

music: Mike Oldfield
lyrics: Mike Oldfield and Jon Anderson
sung by: Jon Anderson

Look down from in high places.
Lift off the ground
Without a sound, yeah.

We move through open spaces.
The wind, it pulls.
The sky gets close, yeah.

Could we get much higher?
Could we get much lighter?
Navigator to heaven.

Check out, did you check your heart?
This cloudless blue.
This starlight night, yeah.

Shoot out into the shining,
That devil moon. (That devil moon)
He sings of love, yeah.

Can we get much higher?
Can we get much lighter?
Navigator to heaven.

The stars, so close we touch them.
They seem so small.
They make me wonder.

Far out in formation,
Five thousand moons.
Floating balloons.

Couldn't get much higher,
Couldn't get much lighter.
Navigator to heaven.

FOREIGN AFFAIR

music: Mike Oldfield
lyrics: Mike Oldfield and Maggie Reilly
sung by: Maggie Reilly

Foreign affair.
Take a trip in the air
To a tropical beach,
An island to reach.
A new territory
For an intimate story,
A lagoon by la mere.
It's a foreign affair.

Drifting and free
On a mystical sea.
A wishful emotion,
A drop in the ocean.
A hush in the air
You can feel anywhere
In the cool twilight
On a tropical night.

Chorus:
Floating on air.
Foreign affair.
A magical potion,
A cool locomotion.
dream,
prayer.
It's a foreign affair!)

Repeat Chorus

SHADOW ON THE WALL

music and lyrics: Mike Oldfield
sung by: Roger Chapman

Chorus:
Shadow on the wall!
Shadow on the wall!
Shadow on the wall!
Shadow on the wall!
Like a shadow on the wall!

Treat me like a prisoner,
Treat me like a fool.
Treat me like a loser,
Use me as a tool.
Face me 'til I'm hungry,
Push me in the cold.
Treat me like a criminal,
Just a shadow on the wall!

Repeat Chorus

Treat me like I'm evil,
Freeze me 'til I'm cold.
Beat me 'til I'm feeble,
Grab me 'til I'm old.
Fry me 'til I'm tired,
Push me 'til I fall.
Treat me like a criminal,
Just a shadow on the wall!

Repeat Chorus

Shadow on the wall!
Shadow on the wall!
Like a shadow on the wall!

Shadow on the wall!
Shadow on the wall!
Like a shadow on the wall!

Shadow on the wall!
Shadow on the wall!
Like a shadow on the wall!

Shadow on the wall!
Shadow on the wall!
