How Beautiful You Are
Lyricist:Boris Bransby-williams, Simon Gallup, Robert Smith, Porl Thompson, Laurence Tolhurst
Do you want to know why I hate you? Well I'll try and explain Do you remember that day in Paris Oh when we wandered through the rain
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
Three of them were dressed in rags And thinner than air And all six eyes stared fixedly on you
The father's eyes said 'Beautiful How beautiful you are' Boy's eyes said 'How beautiful She shimmers like a star'

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 father's eyes said 'Beautiful How beautiful you are' Boy's eyes said 'How beautiful She glitters like a star'
The child's eyes uttered nothing But quiet and utter joy And stilled my heart with sadness For the way we are, for the way we are For the way we are
This is why I hate you And how I understand That no one ever knows or loves another Or loves another
