Gabriel
gabriel this is the last chapter of our correspondence i hope that after time goes past you can remember me with fondness
i think as i am thinking now of all the pages that have seen us laid out an ending in between us and we can walk them like the ground
i know my fate i do not mean to fight but you tread softly on the ground tonight tread softly on the words you used to write
oh gabriel i see you there that day i met you in the orchard and i was younger then i wore my hair in bows across my forehead
soon they were twisted at the shoulder and fixed with clasps against my neck and i do not think you would know her if you could see what they reflect
i've seen my future in an evening dress all wrapped in tapestry and fur i guess remember me the way you knew me best
oh gabriel i have kept Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com everything you sent me everything you put to paper but it's better to forget and fill your head with memories think that you will thank me later
oh gabriel i wish that i could pick you up and fold you like a ribbon i'd hold you always and in secret in the pockets of my clothes
but this is how i live my life with all the parts that i was given this is the heart that i was given and what you're given can't be sold
i see my future in an evening dress all wrapped in tapestry and fur i guess remember the way you knew me best
i know my fate i do not mean to fight but you tread softly on the ground tonight tread softly on the words you used to write
i know my fate i do not mean to fight but you tread softly on the ground tonight tread softly on the words you used to write
