[00:00.750] |
Starry' starry night. |
[00:05.530] |
Paint your palette blue and grey' |
[00:10.250] |
Look out on a summer's day' |
[00:13.540] |
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul. |
[00:17.950] |
Shadows on the hills' |
[00:22.420] |
Sketch the trees and the daffodils' |
[00:27.520] |
Catch the breeze and the winter chills' |
[00:30.980] |
In colors on the snowy linen land. |
[00:37.700] |
Now I understand what you tried to say to me' |
[00:46.920] |
How you suffered for your sanity' |
[00:52.010] |
How you tried to set them free. |
[00:55.080] |
They would not listen' they did not know how. |
[01:00.950] |
Perhaps they'll listen now. |
[01:06.300] |
Starry' starry night. |
[01:11.140] |
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze' |
[01:15.830] |
Swirling clouds in violet haze' |
[01:19.740] |
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue. |
[01:24.210] |
Colors changing hue' |
[01:29.090] |
morning field of amber grain' |
[01:34.020] |
Weathered faces lined in pain' |
[01:37.650] |
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand. |
[01:42.770] |
Now I understand what you tried to say to me' |
[01:52.200] |
How you suffered for your sanity' |
[01:56.800] |
How you tried to set them free. |
[01:59.990] |
They would not listen' they did not know how. |
[02:05.670] |
Perhaps they'll listen now. |
[02:08.120] |
For they could not love you' |
[02:13.150] |
But still your love was true. |
[02:17.870] |
And when no hope was left in sight |
[02:21.490] |
On that starry' starry night' |
[02:24.680] |
You took your life' as lovers often do. |
[02:30.150] |
But I could have told you' Vincent' |
[02:34.110] |
This world was never meant for one |
[02:36.700] |
As beautiful as you. |
[02:43.200] |
Starry' starry night. |
[02:48.350] |
Portraits hung in empty halls' |
[02:52.780] |
Frameless head on nameless walls' |
[02:56.850] |
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget. |
[03:01.220] |
Like the strangers that you've met' |
[03:04.920] |
All the ragged men in the ragged clothes' |
[03:10.350] |
The silver thorn of bloody rose' |
[03:14.280] |
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow. |
[03:19.470] |
Now I think I know what you tried to say to me' |
[03:29.660] |
How you suffered for your sanity' |
[03:34.570] |
How you tried to set them free. |
[03:38.380] |
They would not listen' they're not listening still. |
[03:44.010] |
Perhaps they never will... |
