I think moving it shocked it and it will be fine. My lemon trees do not drop lots of leaves in the winter. The old leaves get leathery.

During the Fall the leaves on all tree's starts to fall off. It's
normal, every season this happens. And by spring it'll start
growing back.

It sounds as though the change in light level is affecting your tree. You might want to try to add some source of artificial light, preferably with a bulb that will emit a spectrum as close to natural sunlight as possible.

Might be too much water. Make sure it is getting pleanty of heat on sunshine. if it is in a pot make sure it is not pot bound. Citrus generally do not loose leaves seasonally.
