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 you'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 (My name is Ariel) My name is Ariel
