“I Cried For You” – Katie Melua
You’re beautiful so silently
It lies beneath a shade of blue
It struck me so violently
When I looked at youBut others pass, they never pause,
To feel that magic in your hand
To me you’re like a wild rose
They never understand whyI 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 whisperI’ll cross the sea for a different world,
With your treasure, a secret for me to holdIn 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 whisperWithout 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
That beauty need only be a whisper

When I hear this song, it makes me cry because I can’t imagine life without my Tom.
I do feel like a hopeless drifter when he’s gone.
