You're beautiful so silently
|
It lies beneath a shade of blue
|
It struck me so violently
|
When I looked at you
|
|
But others pass, they never pause
|
To feel that magic in your hand
|
To me you're like a wild rose
|
They never understand why
|
|
I cried for you
|
When the sky cried for you
|
And when you went
|
I became a hopeless drifter
|
But this life was not for you
|
Though I learned from you
|
That beauty need only be a whisper
|
|
I'll cross the sea for a different world
|
With your treasure, a secret for me to hold
|
|
In many years they may forget
|
This love of ours or that we met
|
They may not know
|
How much you meant to me
|
|
I cried for you
|
And the sky cried for you
|
And when you went
|
I became a hopeless drifter
|
But this life was not for you
|
Though I learned from you
|
That beauty need only be a whisper
|
|
Without you now I see
|
How fragile the world can be
|
And I know you've gone away
|
But in my heart you'll always stay
|
|
I cried for you
|
When the sky cried for you
|
And when you went
|
I became a hopeless drifter
|
But this life was not for you
|
Though I learned from you
|
That beauty need only be a whisper
|
That beauty need only be a whisper
|
