[Verse 1]

I don't mean to be so insolent

But you know it's cause I love ya

The foundation of my malevolence

You know I'd never hurt you, babe

[Pre-Chorus]

Sometimes I might get edgy

But a man can sometimes be that way

Nobody's perfect, baby

And I'll always love you anyway

[Chorus]

Ohh, Gabrielle

The sun is shining in your eyes

Ohh, Gabrielle

I didn't mean to make you cry

Ohh, my sweet baby doll

I put you above everything

Ohh, Gabrielle

I love you till the day I die

[Verse 2]

Sometimes I feel like my old man

You know, that's hard for me to say

And sometimes I just lose my head

Don't know why I get that way

[Pre-Chorus]

I want to keep you happy, darling

It could only work out that way

Nobody's perfect, baby

And I'll always love you anyway

[Chorus]

Ohh, Gabrielle

The sun is shining in your eyes

Ohh, Gabrielle

I didn't mean to make you cry

Ohh, my sweet baby doll

I put you above everything

Ohh, Gabrielle

I love you till the day I die

[Break]

Gabrielle

Oh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my

Gabrielle

[Bridge]

Well, Gabrielle

You know I love you, baby

Do nothing to hurt you, baby

But you know I got to love you anyway

Oh, Gabrielle, you're so nice

You know I- I love you, baby

Oh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my

[Chorus]

Ohh, Gabrielle

The sun is shining in your eyes

Ohh, Gabrielle

I didn't mean to make you cry

Ohh, my sweet baby doll

I put you above everything

Ohh, Gabrielle

I love you till the day I die

[Outro]
