Cure The How Beautiful You Are Lyrics

How Beautiful You Are Lyrics

You want to know why i hate you?

 Well i'll try and explain...

 You remember that day in paris

 When we wandered through the rain

 And promised to each other

 That we'd always think the same

 And dreamed that dream

 To be two souls as one

 And stopped just as the sun set

 And waited for the night

 Outside a glittering building

 Of glittering glass and burning light...

 And in the road before us

 Stood a weary greyish man

 Who held a child upon his back

 A small boy by the hand

 The three of them were dressed in rags

 And thinner than the air

 And all six eyes stared fixedly on you

 

 The father's eyes said "beautiful!

 How beautiful you are!"

 The boy's eyes said

 "how beautiful!

 She shimmers like a star!"

 The childs eyes uttered nothing

 But a mute and utter joy

 And filled my heart with shame for us

 At the way we are

 

 I turned to look at you

 To read my thoughts upon your face

 And gazed so deep into your eyes

 So beautiful and strange

 Until you spoke

 And showed me understanding is a dream

 "i hate these people staring

 Make them go away from me!"

 

 The fathers eyes said "beautiful!

 How beautiful you are!"

 The boys eyes said

 "how beautiful! she glitters like a star!"

 The child's eyes uttered joy

 And stilled my heart with sadness

 For the way we are

 

 And this is why i hate you

 And how i understand

 That no-one ever knows or loves another

 

 Or loves another
