Song lyrics
Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won

So I took what's mine by eternal right
Took your soul out into the night
It may be over but it won't stop there
I am here for you if you'd only care

You touched my heart you touched my soul
You changed my life and all my goals
And love is blind and that I knew when
My heart was blinded by you
I've kissed your lips and held your head
Shared your dreams and shared your bed
I know you well, I know your smell
I've been addicted to you

Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me

Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me

I am a dreamer and when I wake
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take
And as you move on, remember me
Remember us and all we used to be

I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile
I've watched you sleeping for a while
I'd be the father of your child
I'd spend a lifetime with you

I know your fears and you know mine
We've had our doubts but now we're fine
And I love you, I swear that's true
I cannot live without you

Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me

Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me

And I still hold your hand in mine
In mine when I'm asleep
And I will bear my soul in time
When I'm kneeling at your feet

Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me

Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me

I'm so hollow, baby
I'm so hollow
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow

I'm so hollow, baby
I'm so hollow
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

Like Everyone I am in love with this song! But the person he wrote it about, did they seperated b/c of a relashionship he knew was doomed from the start, or did she die cus of the lyrics: I WOULD be the father of your child, and others like that? I know he had a friend that he broke up with thats why he wrote your beautiful, but did she die?? Help! I cant find that anywhere

james blunt is absolutely amazing in every way when it comes to this song. the lyrics are beautiful and his voice makes you feel like its something close to his heart. the piano at the beginning makes me want to melt. the heartfelt way he sings it brings tears to my eyes .

siiiighs... is there any better expression than : "what can i say?"... i guess not, so here im saying what can i say? still didnt hear the song though... i just read the lyrics, n from the first line i kept reading the next lines with a spirit full of excitment to know what will the great james blunt will say ... u know when u hear/read a song the express ur situation; especially if its a love/anger/breakup situation? u feel like its for u...ur OWN you! ... damn it! i swear to god that 99% of the song express the situation with me n my X ... before i loved her i knew it mite not work out, we were addicted to eachother, loved eachother...and how many times we swore that we love eachother ... damn life is hard... seriously its hard... it all depend on next year...may god make it work... - n i hope if she dont read this ...-...
at the end...still didnt hear the song...downloading it though, but i believe ill like it.

Definately my favorite song of his. It is truly touching and it's sooo easy to relate to his emotions expressed in the song. "Love is blind and that I knew when my heart was blinded by you"

Such an emotional song

Whoah! Its so unusual to actually hear a song that just makes you stop what your doing and just think and listen, ACTUALLY LISTEN!! I think this song and another song by Blue October is Heartbreaking, and to sing it with such emotion! you can tell that it is very hard for him to do and it is a very personal song, Its Great and anyone who says otherwise needs to just stop and LISTEN, and understand, put yourselves in another persons shoes.
