Blackmore's Night - Ariel Lyrics

I search for her in the dead of night
A silhouette lit by candlelight
In a whispered word she is gone
Familiar stranger without a name
In a darkened room they all look the same
Like the sand of time she slips away so far away

An angel dressed in the blackest lace
Through a mirror you see her face
A sip of wine and the games can begin
She looks at you and you know her smile
I can make your whole life worthwhile
But all you see is your fate in her eyes
And you take her, but her life

Oh Ariel,
Lost in a distant dream, take me home
Ariel

Oh Ariel,
Lost in a distant dream, take me home
Ariel

Oh Ariel
Oh Ariel
Oh Ariel
Oh Ariel
Oh Ariel
Oh Ariel
Oh Ariel
Oh Ariel

I search for her in the dead of night
A silhouette lit by candlelight
In a whispered word she is gone
