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
