Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : McLean
[00:01.00] 作词 : McLean
[00:03.870] Starry, starry night
[00:05.470] paint your palette blue and grey
[00:10.420] look out on a summer's day
[00:13.610] with eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
[00:17.840] Shadows on the hills
[00:22.210] sketch the trees and the daffodils
[00:27.240] catch the breeze and the winter chills
[00:31.030] in colors on the snowy linen land.
[00:37.520] And now I understand
[00:42.010] what you tried to say to me
[00:46.740] and how you suffered for your sanity
[00:51.570] and how you tried to set them free.
[00:54.620] They would not listen they did not know how
[01:00.120] perhaps they'll listen now.
[01:05.790] Starry starry night
[01:10.440] flaming flowers that brightly blaze
[01:15.680] swirling clouds in violet haze
[01:19.350] reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue.
[01:23.710] Colors changing hue
[01:28.210] morning fields of amber grain
[01:33.420] weathered faces lined in pain
[01:37.520] are smoothed beneath the artist's loving hand.
[01:41.790] And now I understand
[01:46.640] what you tried to say to me
[01:50.510] and how you suffered for your sanity
[01:55.840] and how you tried to set them free.
[01:58.610] They would not listen they did not know how
[02:03.940] perhaps they'll listen now.
[02:08.350] For they could not love you
[02:12.660] but still your love was true
[02:17.480] and when no hope was left in sight on that
[02:21.860] starry starry night.
[02:24.340] You took your life as lovers often do,
[02:29.420] But I could have told you Vincent
[02:33.520] this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you.
[02:42.830] Starry starry night
[02:47.470] portraits hung in empty halls
[02:52.590] frameless heads on nameless walls
[02:56.400] with eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
[03:00.280] Like the stranger that you've met
[03:05.040] the ragged men in ragged clothes
[03:09.580] the silver thorn of bloddy rose
[03:13.080] lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.
[03:18.520] And now I think I know
[03:23.470] what you tried to say to me
[03:28.010] and how you suffered for your sanity
[03:33.570] and how you tried to set them free.
[03:36.390] They would not listen they're not listening still
[03:42.380] perhaps they never will.
