Ariel Lyrics - Singles - Dean Friedman

Way on the other side of the Hudson 

Deep in the bosom of suburbia 

I met a young girl she sang mighty fine 

Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria 

Standing by the water fall in Paramus Park 

She was working for the friends of BAI 

She was collecting quarters in a paper cup 

She was looking for change and so was I 

She was a Jewish girl, I fell in love with her 

She wrote her number on the back of my hand 

I called her up, I was all out of breath 

I said, "Come hear me play in my rock and roll band" 

I took a shower and I put on my best blue jeans 

I picked her up in my new V W van 

She wore a peasant blouse with nothing underneath 

I said "Hi", she said, "yeah, I guess I am" 

Ariel, Ariel 

We had a little time, we were real hungry 

We went to Dairy Queen for something to eat 

She had some onion rings, she had a pickle 

She forgot to tell me how she didn't eat meat 

I had a gig in the American Legion hall 

It was a dance for the Volunteer Ambulance Corps 

she was sitting in a corner against the wall 

She would smile and I melted all over the floor 

I took her home with me, we watched some TV 

Annette Funicello and some guy going steady 

I started fooling around with the vertical hold 

We got the munchies so I made some spaghetti 

We sat and we talked into the night 

While channel 2 was signing off the air 

I found the softness of a mouth 

We made love, the bombs bursting in air 

Ariel, Ariel, Ariel, Ariel 

Way on the other side of the Hudson 

Deep in the bosom of suburbia 

I met a young girl 

She sang mighty fine 

Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria
