My name is Ariel and I want to be free
It is your sorrow that has made a slave of me
Forgive me, forgive me
But you are all I know
Forgive me for leaving

The day is breaking now, it's time to go away
I'm so afraid to leave but more afraid to stay
Forgive me for leaving
The sadness in your eyes
Forgive me

Let the wind and ocean water wash across your hands
Wash away a thousand footsteps, wash us all away
Like sand

The sky has fallen, now the earth is dry and torn
I know your're tired  from the violence of the storm
I love you, I love you
But you are all I know
Forgive me

Let the wind and ocean water wash across your hands
Wash away a thousand footsteps, wash us all away

Let the wind and ocean water wash across your hands
Wash away a thousand memories, wash us all away
Like sand

My name is Ariel
My name is Ariel
My name is Ariel
