You're Beautiful by James Blunt. an exceptional piece of something. so sad and so real.

.. i saw an angel / of that i'm sure.. smiled at me on the subway.. was with another.. you're beautiful.. it's true.. i saw your face in a crowded place / and I don't know what to do / 'cause Ill never be with you.. we shared a moment that will last till the end.. 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.

some people just manage to grab our attention for some unidentifyable, unreasonable and sometimes absurd reason. we can choose our friends, yes, but we can never choose the people we meet, the people who touch our lives. worse, we can never choose the people we give our hearts to, sometimes unwittingly, unwillingly.

such is the fate we all must face.
