| [00:00.271] |
Starry starry night |
| [00:05.675] |
Paint your palette blue and grey |
| [00:10.406] |
Look out on a summer's day |
| [00:13.659] |
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul |
| [00:17.780] |
Shadows on the hills |
| [00:22.452] |
Sketch the trees and the daffodils |
| [00:27.570] |
Catch the breeze and the winter chills |
| [00:31.129] |
In colors on the snowy linen land |
| [00:37.908] |
Now I understand |
| [00:42.692] |
What you tried to say to me |
| [00:47.272] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
| [00:52.315] |
How you tried to set them free |
| [00:55.824] |
They would not listen they did not know how |
| [01:01.195] |
Perhaps they'll listen now |
| [01:06.839] |
Starry starry night |
| [01:11.771] |
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze |
| [01:16.867] |
Swirling clouds in violet haze |
| [01:20.427] |
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue |
| [01:24.499] |
Colors changing hue |
| [01:29.435] |
Morning fields of amber grain |
| [01:34.539] |
Weathered faces lined in pain |
| [01:38.01] |
Are smoothed beneath the artist's loving hand |
| [01:42.49] |
Now I understand |
| [01:47.175] |
What you tried to say to me |
| [01:51.549] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
| [01:56.641] |
How you tried to set them free |
| [01:59.573] |
They would not listen they did not know how |
| [02:05.75] |
Perhaps they'll listen now |
| [02:07.803] |
For they could not love you |
| [02:12.650] |
But still your love was true |
| [02:17.703] |
And when no hope was left in sight on that |
| [02:22.00] |
Starry starry night |
| [02:24.938] |
You took your life as lovers often do |
| [02:30.480] |
But I could have told you Vincent |
| [02:33.268] |
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you |
| [02:42.285] |
Starry starry night |
| [02:47.165] |
Portraits hung in empty halls |
| [02:52.294] |
Frameless heads on nameless walls |
| [02:55.644] |
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget |
| [02:59.895] |
Like the stranger that you've met |
| [03:03.985] |
The ragged men in ragged clothes |
| [03:09.113] |
The silver thorn of bloddy rose |
| [03:12.765] |
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow |
| [03:16.684] |
Now I think I know |
| [03:21.917] |
What you tried to say to me |
| [03:26.401] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
| [03:31.449] |
How you tried to set them free |
| [03:35.144] |
They would not listen they're not listening still |
| [03:40.424] |
Perhaps they never will |
