Lyrics: James Blunt - Your Beautiful
Album: Back To Bedlam
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 you 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,
I will never be with you
|
You're beautiful, but we had to sell you

A Norfolk landmark and family home of singer-songwriter James Blunt has
been sold.
Cley Mill, images of which adorn paintings, greeting cards and tea towels,
has become an icon of the coast and was put on the market in May for £1.5m.
Little is known about the new owners except that they come from outside
the county and that they plan to carry on running the hotel.
The mill features in many guide books and, with 400 guests a month and a
loyal clientele, is a thriving business. It is believed the new owners
already work in the hospitality industry.
The previous owners, John and Val Woodhouse - who described the decision
to sell the mill as extremely difficult but necessary for family reasons -
have already moved out. And a "babysitter" is ensuring the
day-to-day running of the business while the new owner occasionally
visits.
Cley Mill was last on the market in 1921, when it was bought by Sara Maria
Wilson and converted into a holiday home, at which time most of the
working parts were removed and the cap and sails fixed.
In 1934, the mill passed to her grandson, Hubert Blount. During the war
years it was used by his aunt, a nun called Sister Rachel, who with Sister
Catherine is said to have become legendary in the area.
In 1979, the mill passed to Charles and James Blount, parents of James
Blunt, who dropped the "o" in his name for stage purposes. Then
in 1983 it was renovated and converted into its present form.
Last year, the mill transferred to Mr Woodhouse and his wife Val.
