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, the 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 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 That beauty need only be a whisper
