I Cried For You


Katie Melua


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 
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
