Josie's

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 your 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
flying 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.

la la la la, la la la la, la la la la laaaaaa

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.


James Blunt所演唱的You're Beautiful.
其實我很少聽西洋歌曲的，
喜歡的西洋藝人也只有coldplay少數幾個，
但在我第一次聽到這首歌的時候，心裡卻有種震撼的感覺。

只是聽旋律、歌聲，還沒有歌詞，我就愛上這首歌了。

第一次聽是在Just Like Heaven的預告片中。
男女主角一個是人一個是靈魂，
伸出手相碰的時候，音樂響起。
那時候就覺得這部電影應該很好看！音樂好好聽！

可是看完電影才發現裡面沒有這首歌呀...囧

第二次聽是在日劇小早川伸木之戀裡面，
竟然也用了這首歌曲讓我很驚訝，
所以去找了歌詞來看，
才發現這首歌原來不是我想的浪漫情歌，
而是一首淒美的情歌。

它敘說的是一個男生愛上了一個像天使一樣的女生，
但他知道他永遠也沒有辦法和她在一起。

But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.
但該是面對事實的時候了，
我和你永遠無法相依。

好無奈的感覺呀！
James有點沙啞的聲音聽起來更是有種無奈的心酸。

這首歌曲的MV在最後，James頭也不回的朝懸崖一躍而下，
有人認為他跳下懸崖的原因，
是因為無法擁有心儀的女生，
但也有人認為這是他對戰爭的無言抗議，暗指他在任職軍官時，
被派至科索沃目睹當地血腥內戰的傷痛回憶。

歌詞中的"You're Beautiful"指的就是科索沃，
在經過內戰摧殘後，再也不見這塊美麗的土地；
"I will never be with you"暗示科索沃這塊分裂的土地再也難回到之前的美麗。

每從網路上多看到一點有關這首歌曲的資料，
再聽這首歌的時候就更多了一點不同的感覺。

下次聽到這首歌，
仔細的聽歌詞，
也許你可以感受到James真正想表達的東西，
或是，對於無法和相愛的人在一起的無奈。
