Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My life is brilliant

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

Yes, she caught my eye
As we walked on by
She could see from my face that I was,
Fuckin' 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

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

My life is brilliant
I am living my life to its fullest potential


My love is pure
My feelings for you are genuine and untainted


I saw an angel
I laid eyes on someone incredibly special and admirable


Of that I'm sure
I have no doubt in my mind about what I saw


She smiled at me on the subway
This angelic person made a positive impact on my day by sharing a smile with me on public transit


She was with another man
Unfortunately, someone else had already captured her heart


But I won't lose no sleep on that
I will not become upset or troubled over this situation


'Cause I've got a plan
I have a strategy to continue forward in my own life without this person by my side


You're beautiful, You're beautiful, You're beautiful, it's true
I cannot deny your physical and inner beauty, it is certainly genuine


I saw your face in a crowded place
I couldn't help but notice you among the throngs of people around us


And I don't know what to do
I am feeling overwhelmed by these powerful emotions


'Cause I'll never be with you
I understand that a relationship between us will never be a possibility


Yes, she caught my eye
My attention was fully focused on her


As we walked on by
We were walking past each other without knowing the effect we had on one another


She could see from my face that I was, Fuckin' high
I was under the influence of some sort of drug or alcohol, and she could tell


And I don't think that I'll see her again
I do not believe I will have another chance encounter with this person


But we shared a moment that will last till the end
We had a small yet significant interaction that will remain in my memory forever


There must be an angel with a smile on her face
There is someone out there who must have played a part in bringing us into each other's presence


When she thought up that I should be with you
This hypothetical angel must have had some idea that we could be a good match for each other


But it's time to face the truth
Despite this potential cosmic intervention, I must come to terms with reality


I will never be with you
Despite my admiration and attraction to you, it is time to move forward without you in my life

I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

Yes, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Flying high. [ - video/radio edited version]
Fucking high. [ - CD version]
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last 'til the end.
