[00:18.290]Starry, starry night
[00:25.150]Paint your palette blue and gray
[00:31.680]Look out on a summer's day
[00:36.370]With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
[00:41.650]Shadows on the hills
[00:47.860]Sketch the trees and daffodils
[00:54.520]Catch the breeze and the winter chills
[01:01.390]In colors on the snowy linen land
[01:06.160]
[01:08.460]Now I understand what you tried to say to me
[01:20.910]How you suffered for your sanity
[01:27.160]How you tried to set them free
[01:30.540]They would not listen, they did not know how
[01:37.500]Perhaps, they'll listen now
[01:43.540]
[01:45.330]Starry, starry night
[01:51.830]Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
[01:58.090]Swirling clouds in violet haze
[02:02.850]Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
[02:08.280]Colors changing hue
[02:14.520]Morning fields of amber grain
[02:21.370]Weathered faces lined in pain
[02:25.930]Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
[02:30.740]
[02:31.020]Now I understand what you tried to say to me
[02:43.550]How you suffered for your sanity
[02:49.650]And how you tried to set them free
[02:53.030]They would not listen, they did not know how
[03:00.770]Perhaps, they'll listen now
[03:04.460]For they could not love you
[03:10.330]And still your love was true
[03:17.460]And when no hope was left inside on that starry, starry night
[03:26.290]You took your life as lovers often do
[03:33.100]But I could have told you, Vincent
[03:36.900]This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
[03:47.860]
[03:50.130]Starry, starry night
[03:57.010]Portraits hung in empty hall
[04:03.660]Frameless heads on nameless walls
[04:08.250]With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
[04:13.880]Like the strangers that you've met
[04:20.960]The ragged man in ragged clothes
[04:27.360]The silver thorn of bloody rose
[04:32.170]Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
[04:38.040]
[04:38.440]Now I think I know what you tried to say to me
[04:50.470]How you suffered for your sanity
[04:57.470]Then how you tried to set them free
[05:02.000]They would not listen, they're not listening still
[05:09.900]Perhaps, they never will..
