I saw her get off the bus- perfectly dangerous

though I could tell- the trouble she'd spell- I fell for Gabrielle



she said "I can't stay long- there's somewhere else I belong"

(but) I made her smile- with my so-called style- I knew she'd stay a while



Gabrielle is the next big thing 

Gabrielle, you'll have everything

Soon everyone will call out your name 



moving so fast we crashed/ hours and weeks flash past

running around/ uptown and down/ feet barely touched the ground



we could break all the rules/ but love is a game we'd lose

never confess/ pretend you care less/ no one's to blame, I guess



Gabrielle is the next big thing 

Gabrielle, you'll have everything

Soon everyone will call out your name 

Gabrielle, I can't let you go 

Gabrielle, in the end I know

I'll be the one who calls out your name



(bridge) 

Gabrielle never cries- but something was in her eyes- whispering words

goodbye



Gabrielle shines on screen- and covers of magazines

on billboard-signs- nine stories high- once she was only mine



Gabrielle is the next big thing 

Gabrielle, you'll have everything

Soon everyone will call out your name 

Gabrielle, I can't let you go 

Gabrielle, in the end I know

I'll be the one who calls out your name
