Starry, starry night, paint your palette blue and gray |
[00:23.21] |
Look out on a summer's day |
[00:27.39] |
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul |
[00:31.78] |
Shadows on the hills, sketch the trees and daffodils |
[00:41.86] |
Catch the breeze and the winter chills |
[00:46.88] |
In colors on the snowy linen land |
[00:53.06] |
Now I understand, what you tried to say to me |
[01:05.16] |
And how you suffered for your sanity |
[01:10.73] |
And how you tried to set them free they would not listen |
[01:15.61] |
They did not know how, perhaps they'll listen now |
[01:25.86] |
Starry, starry night, flaming flowers that brightly blaze |
[01:36.86] |
Swirling clouds and violet haze |
[01:40.80] |
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue |
[01:44.98] |
Colors changing hue, morning fields of amber grain |
[01:56.82] |
Weathered faces lined in pain |
[02:00.51] |
Are soothed beneath the artists' loving hand |
[02:07.92] |
Now I understand, what you tried to say to me |
[02:18.58] |
And how you suffered for your sanity |
[02:24.00] |
And how you tried to set them free, they would not listen |
[02:28.73] |
They did not know how, perhaps they'll listen now |
[02:36.45] |
For they could not love you, but still your love was true |
[02:46.80] |
And when no hope was left inside on that starry, starry night |
[02:54.21] |
You took your life as lovers often do, but I could have told you Vincent |
[03:04.56] |
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you |
[03:35.04] |
Like the strangers that you've met |
[03:41.31] |
The ragged men in ragged clothes |
[03:46.88] |
The silver thorn of bloody rose |
[03:50.81] |
Like crushed and broken on the virgin snow |
[03:54.79] |
Now I think I know, what you tried to say to me |
[04:06.39] |
And how you suffered for your sanity |
[04:12.11] |
And how you tried to set them free, they would not listen |
[04:17.20] |
They're not listening still, perhaps they never will |
