It's getting light, it's getting late And i've looked everywhere and called her name Her dad's the doctor down, The sheriff's standing `round Arianne We sat by the river's edge I slipped in and she slipped off her dress She stepped cautiously Into that shining stream Arianne Chorus There's a place that i can go Where her memory still flows It cuts a deeper path With every season past Arianne I can see her as she sleeps A face as still as that river is deep Leaves are turning `round White arm's hair of brown Arianne Chorus
