You're Beautiful Lyrics

My life is brilliant

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 have got a plan

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

Yes, she caught my eye
As I 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 its time to face the truth
I will never be with you

My heart breaks everytime when i hear him says " But its time to face the truth, I will never be with you"

This song is so good. Just kind of sad at the end when he says, "But it's time to face the truth, I will never be with you..." I think the meaning is pretty obvious.

@wayla1234 Pretty obvious Pretty much sums up the entire song.

this song refers to true,pure love-the artist has fallen in love with this girl,but knows that she is out of bounds-quite possibly leading to suicide to numb the pain of knowing he can never be with his one true love.There are references to death throughout-"we shared a moment That will last till the end"..is the moment they shared and his dream of being her all that has kept him going,but eventually becomes an obsession-consuming him? "Cause I have got a plan"..what plan?suicide?surely not one to somehow gain her love,for he admits "I'll never be with you" "There must be an angel With a smile on her face When she thought up That I should be with you".. Angels..watching over him,guiding him..she seems perfect to him,yet he cant be with her-shes with someone else,and is perhaps out of her league-she notices him when hes "fucking high"..so angels guide him to what he feels is the answer..where he can be with her someday.

you know that feeling you get, wen u see the person u really like, there perfect in every way, the one problem is that they r with some1 else, and there isn't much you can do! this song completly somes up that feeling! like scottish lion said it's somthing that happens to all of all and u jus gota smile and move on, hard as it may be!

@hunnybee4u Yes, it is heart wrenching when you see the one you love with another man. It made me want to hurt myself in some way. But i moved on and love came my way. Of course i will never know if this love i have is as strong as the love i could have had, but it is strong love i feel now. But still.....a part of me wonders.........

I think this song is about just one moment, when you see somone in passing and you know you will never ever see them again but they have in some way touched you.

When I heard this song I was like oh wow what a great love song but then we I heard the lyrics its was the complete opposite and it just made me cry... I can relate to this song and i think everyone else would agree on that....

This song makes me think about a lot. Past and future..the pain someone goes through over another human being. I hate the feeling of not being able to have her...it's happened numerous times, and it just hurts more and more every time. But the song makes you realize how life is, and that a person can't achieve everything they want, so you have to tough it out, and just move on. "She can see from my face, that I was fucking high." I love this. She was so flawless....so perfect to him, that she gave him his own natural high. Wonderful Song.

it's about love at first sight. He saw the woman of his dreams and he wants to be with her, but that will be really hard because they don't know each other. It happend that to me once... so I understand how painful it is.

This song reminds me of being on the subway. You know, you notice that person in a crowd of people and you can't stop staring at them.. but they happen to be riding with their boyfriend/girlfriend. And the two of you have that connection.. where you just both KNOW you're attracted to eachother..it's all in the eye contact.

"And I don't think That I'll see her again But we shared a moment That will last till the end"

i think everyone has that one person that they can remember having a moment with.. but you'll never see them again because you don't know their name or anything

Cover art for You're Beautiful lyrics by James Blunt

I think the meaning is that life is good, and it's beautiful but sometimes you let the little moments pass and you regret not doing anything later. "I know I'll never be with you." He will never see her again. Amazing how life crosses two people, even for a moment like on the subway. One moment can change your life.
