Vincent
[00:00.00] ♪
[00:00.40] Starry, starry night
[00:04.89] Paint your palette blue and gray
[00:09.66] Look out on a summer's day
[00:12.91] With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
[00:17.32] Shadows on the hills
[00:21.95] Sketch the trees and the daffodils
[00:26.94] Catch the breeze and the winter chills
[00:30.55] In colors on the snowy linen land
[00:37.08] Now I understand
[00:41.81] What you tried to say to me
[00:46.00] And how you suffered for your sanity
[00:51.29] And how you tried to set them free
[00:54.57] They would not listen, they did not know how
[01:00.13] Perhaps they'll listen now
[01:05.75] Starry, starry night
[01:10.63] Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
[01:15.39] Swirling clouds in violet haze
[01:19.17] Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
[01:23.82] Colors changing hue
[01:28.59] Morning fields of amber grain
[01:33.34] Weathered faces lined in pain
[01:37.72] Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
[01:42.28] Now I understand
[01:46.90] What you tried to say to me
[01:51.17] And how you suffered for your sanity
[01:56.05] And how you tried to set them free
[01:59.05] They would not listen, they did not know how
[02:04.86] Perhaps they'll listen now
[02:07.95] For they could not love you
[02:11.96] But still your love was true
[02:16.98] And when no hope was left in sight
[02:20.70] On that starry, starry night
[02:24.09] You took your life, as lovers often do
[02:29.32] But I could've told you Vincent
[02:33.05] This world was never meant for
[02:35.44] One as beautiful as you
[02:42.59] Starry, starry night
[02:47.60] Portraits hung in empty halls
[02:52.32] Frame-less heads on nameless walls
[02:56.46] With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
[03:00.20] Like the strangers that you've met
[03:04.69] The ragged men in ragged clothes
[03:09.59] The silver thorn of bloody rose
[03:13.60] Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
[03:18.86] Now I think I know
[03:24.37] What you tried to say to me
[03:28.59] And how you suffered for your sanity
[03:33.70] And how you tried to set them free
[03:36.96] They would not listen, they're not listening still
[03:42.99] Perhaps they never will
