Gabrielle
Gabrielle, is it true, did you ever really do
All the things you wanted to?
Gabrielle, did you stray, from your grey suburban bed
To the stories in your head?
Did you fall in love in Fiji?
Did you make the whole world care?
Did you say goodbye to Moscow?
See Australia from the air?
Did you punch your weight in good deeds?
Are there stories you can share?
Vicariously I show that I care
Did you see Africa in the morning?
Or did you stay right where you were?
Did your life become a pattern?
Or did you hear the whole world cheer?
Gabrielle, is it true, that I didn't notice you
On your hopefully life's debut?
Gabrielle, when I dream
You have found a kind of peace
Through the world would treat you mean
Did your life span every ocean
In each corner of the land?
Was your heart met with devotion?
Did you live out all your plans?
In the days when we were younger
Only children in the dirt
And you were always scared of being hurt
Did you see Africa in the morning?
Or did you stay right where you were?
Did your life become a pattern?
Or did you hear the whole world cheer?
All the things you wanted to?
Gabrielle, did you stray, from your grey suburban bed
To the stories in your head?
Did you fall in love in Fiji?
Did you make the whole world care?
Did you say goodbye to Moscow?
See Australia from the air?
Did you punch your weight in good deeds?
Are there stories you can share?
Vicariously I show that I care
Did you see Africa in the morning?
Or did you stay right where you were?
Did your life become a pattern?
Or did you hear the whole world cheer?
Gabrielle, is it true, that I didn't notice you
On your hopefully life's debut?
Gabrielle, when I dream
You have found a kind of peace
Through the world would treat you mean
Did your life span every ocean
In each corner of the land?
Was your heart met with devotion?
Did you live out all your plans?
In the days when we were younger
Only children in the dirt
And you were always scared of being hurt
Did you see Africa in the morning?
Or did you stay right where you were?
Did your life become a pattern?
Or did you hear the whole world cheer?
