Gabriel Go On Home Lyrics - Seals And Crofts

My mind begins to wander 

Way back yonder, I recall 

The day Aunt Osie stood on the porch 

And said to me, "Be careful of the world and all" 

She knew much more than I thought 

But I was young too young to know 

Now I have seen too much too soon 

And somewhere and somehow, something's a gonna blow 

Gabriel, your face is red 

Be careful, you'll hurt your head and wind up dead 

Like the world has lost its ears and eyes 

Is it wise to sympathize 

When harmony has been kicked in the knee? 

And sour notes a singin' 

Their sad, sad song 

Gabriel, won't you go on home? 

Gabriel, won't you go on home? 

My mind begins to wonder 

Way out yonder, I can see 

A brand new star has now been born 

To make things warm and bright for you and me 

Hey here, hey there, hey you 

I've got some proof, it's really so 

Peace on earth, goodwill to men 

And somewhere, somehow, something's a gonna blow 

Gabriel, your face is red 

Be careful, you'll hurt your head and wind up dead 

Like the world has lost its ears and eyes 

Is it wise to sympathize 

When harmony has been kicked in the knee? 

And sour notes a singin' 

Their sad, sad song 

Gabriel, won't you go on home? 

Gabriel, won't you go on home?
