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
