Gabriel and me


(J. Baez)

The grey quiet horse wears the reins of dawn,
And nobody knows what mountain he's from.
In his mouth he carries the golden key,
And nobody sees him but Gabriel and me.
Gabriel and me.

His nose is silver and his mane is white,
His eyes are black and starry like night.
So softly he splashes his hoofs in the sea,
That nobody hears him but Gabriel and me.
Gabriel and me.

He comes in the morning when the air is still,
He races the sun and he always will.
We raise up the window and call through the trees,
Oh we'd love to fly with you, Gabriel and me.
Gabriel and me.

For your back is wingless and there's room for two,
We'll mount from a tree and ride straight on through.
But I guess you're wiser than I thought you'd be,
For you never will listen to Gabriel and me.
Gabriel and me.

For you know that one day we'll forget to wake,
Call it destiny, call it fate.
You'll nuzzle us softly and so silently,
We'll ride in the morning, Gabriel and me,
With the golden key.
Gabriel and me,
Forever to the sea

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 

The lyrics GABRIEL AND ME of JOAN BAEZ is also present in the album Blessed are... (1971)

Biografia

Joan Chandos Baez (New York, 9 gennaio 1941) è una cantautrice e attivista statunitense di fama internazionale. Considerata una delle voci più riconoscibili della musica folk americana, Baez si è distinta per il suo stile vocale potente e melodioso, capace di trasmettere con intensità le emozioni dei testi che interpretava. La sua carriera musicale, iniziata negli anni '50, ha visto un'evoluzione costante, passando dal folk tradizionale al rock progressivo, senza mai perdere la sua identità artistica. Oltre alla musica, Baez è stata una figura di spicco nel movimento per i diritti civili e il pacifismo negli Stati Uniti. Ha partecipato a numerose manifestazioni e ha utilizzato la sua piattaforma per denunciare le ingiustizie sociali e promuovere la pace. Tra i suoi brani più celebri figurano "Diamonds and Rust", "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" e "Blowin' in the Wind". Joan Baez è stata una fonte di ispirazione per generazioni di musicisti e attivisti, lasciando un segno indelebile nella storia della musica americana.
