| [00:00.27] |
Starry starry night |
| [00:05.67] |
Paint your palette blue and grey |
| [00:10.40] |
Look out on a summer's day |
| [00:13.65] |
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul |
| [00:17.78] |
Shadows on the hills |
| [00:22.45] |
Sketch the trees and the daffodils |
| [00:27.57] |
Catch the breeze and the winter chills |
| [00:31.12] |
In colors on the snowy linen land |
| [00:37.90] |
Now I understand |
| [00:42.69] |
What you tried to say to me |
| [00:47.27] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
| [00:52.31] |
How you tried to set them free |
| [00:55.82] |
They would not listen they did not know how |
| [01:01.19] |
Perhaps they'll listen now |
| [01:06.83] |
Starry starry night |
| [01:11.77] |
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze |
| [01:16.86] |
Swirling clouds in violet haze |
| [01:20.42] |
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue |
| [01:24.49] |
Colors changing hue |
| [01:29.43] |
Morning fields of amber grain |
| [01:34.53] |
Weathered faces lined in pain |
| [01:38.00] |
Are smoothed beneath the artist's loving hand |
| [01:42.04] |
Now I understand |
| [01:47.17] |
What you tried to say to me |
| [01:51.54] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
| [01:56.64] |
How you tried to set them free |
| [01:59.57] |
They would not listen they did not know how |
| [02:05.07] |
Perhaps they'll listen now |
| [02:07.80] |
For they could not love you |
| [02:12.65] |
But still your love was true |
| [02:17.70] |
And when no hope was left in sight on that |
| [02:22.00] |
Starry starry night |
| [02:24.93] |
You took your life as lovers often do |
| [02:30.48] |
But I could have told you Vincent |
| [02:33.26] |
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you |
| [02:42.28] |
Starry starry night |
| [02:47.16] |
Portraits hung in empty halls |
| [02:52.29] |
Frameless heads on nameless walls |
| [02:55.64] |
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget |
| [02:59.89] |
Like the stranger that you've met |
| [03:03.98] |
The ragged men in ragged clothes |
| [03:09.11] |
The silver thorn of bloddy rose |
| [03:12.76] |
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow |
| [03:16.68] |
Now I think I know |
| [03:21.91] |
What you tried to say to me |
| [03:26.40] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
| [03:31.44] |
How you tried to set them free |
| [03:35.14] |
They would not listen they're not listening still |
| [03:40.42] |
Perhaps they never will |
