In this world of silent winterscapes
All dreams hang unseen in the air
And every hollow cross we carry through our lives
Drags on our backs beneath the Sun

But when this feeling comes in copper-coloured light
You set your spirit at my side
This fear that all the ones we love will say goodbye
Just vanishes into the shapeless night

Ariel, I've strayed
Do you hear me as I'm calling your name
Ariel, so blind
Will you catch me as I slip from the light
Ariel, Ariel

As the darkness circles overhead, it's never-ending
As I'm driven into the coming storm, the signal breaks
Then you come back to me in scattered gold, I am blinded
And I feel the distance fall away

Ariel, in flight
Do you see me as I'm burning alive
Ariel, I've strayed
Will you answer when I'm calling your name
Ariel, Ariel

And your silhouette is turning in the light
And your mystery just keeps turning inside
I can feel it burning
So fast we're turning for you
Only you
