Katie Melua - I Cried For You
I was half asleep in bed the other night, flicking through the channels when I stumbled upon a song that really stood out.
At the time, I had no idea who it was or what it was. The video was rather strange, but interesting. The song itself seemed beautiful but sad.
I only had a few images from the music video in my mind the following morning, but with a help of a few friends I’ve been able to find out what it was. I think it’s a lovely song and the video is very good too.
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







i’ve listened to kate for almost a year,and this song haunts me,it is always in my mind for certain reasons,it’s beautiful and meaningfull..
she is getting better all the time with her music as she matures,i’m amazed!
though mostly she sings the blues,there is a mix of a regular love song too ,she is a god person and does alot for charities especialy children,
shes young but has great promise as an artist…
i meant to say good person…
