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
