Windy autumn

Evening by the river

Stands a man

A man and gabrielle



Real looker

Her back began to shiver

Reminders of the months

Under his spell



He spoke in measure

She recognized his rhythm

Been a year

A year without a sound



She saw it comin

In gestures he delivered

Her eyes just kept

The ground....



Cause gabrielle

Has learned to tell

The gap from

False to real



And needs a man

Who's sane at hand

In tenderness

Revealed



(he goes) i acted badly

Can you understand me?

The prace i'm making

Cause i'm a changed man



(i was) such a fool

In how i used to trat you

Such a fool

To beat you out of life



Gone the days

I leave you with no traces

Gone the day

You hate to see my face



I know it's late

I sweat and hesitate

Wouldn't it

Be great?



Cause gabrielle

I mean you well

And we have healed

In time



For all the girls

In all the world

It's you i seek

To find, gabrielle



She stood dazed

Nude in amazent

She heard his words

A hundred times again



A fantasy has haunted her

For ages

That fantasy had now become

Her friend



She came upon

An earring in the street

Tearful pearl

With silver to the sides



She finally won

Her walk became a run

She felt as she

Could fly



Cause gabrielle

Has learned to tell

The gap from

False to real



In her's the fan

Who'll meet the man

Cause love is

Strength revealed



Gabrielle....
