Facing the truth

“My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'cause I've got a plan.

You're beautiful.
You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
and I don't know what to do,
'cause I'll never be with you.

Yeah, she caught my eye,
as we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
fucking high.
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
but we shared a moment that will last till the end.

You're beautiful.
You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
and I don't know what to do,
'cause I'll never be with you.
You're beautiful.
You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
that I will never be with you.

- James Blunt, "You're Beautiful"
