"Gabriel" lyrics - RICK SPRINGFIELD

At the edge of understanding
Is where it all begins
When I reach the end of reason
Is where it all sinks in
In the midst of all the raging storms
The deluge covers me
I will find a place prepared for me
So dry beneath a tree

Oh Gabriel, I can hear you whispering
Oh Gabriel, in my silent suffering
Oh Gabriel, could you come to my defense
Oh Gabriel, how I wish that you would fly by my side

With no foregone conclusion
I'm sane but paranoid
Is it all ordered confusion
To find faith in the void
In the harshest winds, you took me in
And set me on my feet
Through the burning sand, you held my hand
And saved me from the heat
Oh Gabriel, I can hear you whispering
Oh Gabriel, in my silent suffering
Oh Gabriel, could you come to my defense
Oh Gabriel, how I wish that you would fly by my side

Gabriel

Oh Gabriel, I can hear you whispering
Oh Gabriel, in my silent suffering
Oh Gabriel, could you come to my defense
Oh Gabriel, I believe in providence

Oh Gabriel, I can hear you whispering
Oh Gabriel, how I wish that you would fly by my side

By my side
