Minor key, about 120bpm, acoustic strum-driven, female vocal, sounds a bit like Fleetwood Mac, a bit Lite FM; the chorus repeatedly mentions "moonlight shadows" and every verse ends on the line "But she didn't think she could pull through."

Now that I've actually typed this out, the song sounds awful. But I still won't rest until I know what the hell it was.

"Moonlight Shadow" by Mike Oldfield, (who isn't the singer, who I think is Maggie Bell?) I fuckin' love that song

Wow. I am in your eternal debt. And let me just take a moment and say ILILM.

And now I found the singer's name, if you're interested: Maggie Reilly.
Ahhh. Closure.
