[00:07.290] |
Starry, starry night |
[00:14.060] |
Paint your palette blue and gray |
[00:20.450] |
Look out on a summer's day |
[00:27.780] |
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul |
[00:38.240] |
Shadows on the hills |
[00:43.810] |
Sketch the trees and daffodils |
[00:50.510] |
Catch the breeze and the winter chills |
[00:55.890] |
In colors on the snowy linen land |
[01:04.710] |
Now I understand what you tried to say to me |
[01:19.190] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
[01:26.200] |
How you tried to set them free |
[01:31.190] |
They would not listen, they did not know how |
[01:38.090] |
Perhaps, they'll listen now |
[01:46.110] |
Starry, starry night |
[01:52.000] |
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze |
[01:59.110] |
Swirling clouds in violet haze |
[02:05.640] |
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue |
[02:11.880] |
Colors changing hue |
[02:19.310] |
Morning fields of amber grain |
[02:28.280] |
Weathered faces lined in pain |
[02:33.160] |
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand |
[02:43.670] |
Now I understand what you tried to say to me |
[02:55.730] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
[03:02.110] |
And how you tried to set them free |
[03:05.910] |
They would not listen, they did not know how |
[03:14.300] |
Perhaps, they'll listen now |
[03:22.820] |
For they could not love you |
[03:28.220] |
And still your love was true |
[03:35.250] |
And when no hope was left inside |
[03:40.240] |
on that starry, starry night |
[03:44.730] |
You took your life as lovers often do |
[03:51.530] |
But I could have told you, Vincent |
[03:55.140] |
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you |
[04:08.500] |
Starry, starry night |
[04:15.300] |
Portraits hung in empty hall |
[04:22.770] |
Frameless heads on nameless walls |
[04:30.110] |
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget |
[04:39.040] |
Like the strangers that you've met |
[04:45.360] |
The ragged man in ragged clothes |
[04:52.030] |
The silver thorn of bloody rose |
[04:57.190] |
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow |
[05:08.620] |
Now I think I know what you tried to say to me |
[05:20.210] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
[05:27.810] |
Then how you tried to set them free |
[05:31.820] |
They would not listen, they're not listening still |
[05:39.590] |
Perhaps, they never will.. |
