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
