[00:00.45] Starry, starry night

[00:04.71] Paint your palette blue and gray

[00:08.99] Look out on a summer's day

[00:12.97] With eyes that know the darkness in my soul

[00:16.69] Shadows on the hills

[00:22.02] Sketch the trees and the daffodils

[00:26.57] Catch the breeze and the winter chills

[00:30.28] In colors on the snowy linen land

[00:36.43] Now I understand

[00:41.73] What you tried to say to me

[00:45.72] And how you suffered for your sanity

[00:51.31] And how you tried to set them free

[00:54.23] They would not listen, they did not know how

[01:00.08] Perhaps they'll listen now

[01:05.40] Starry, starry night

[01:10.48] Flaming flowers that brightly blaze

[01:15.26] Swirling clouds in violet haze

[01:19.25] Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue

[01:23.54] Colors changing hue

[01:28.35] Morning fields of amber grain

[01:33.14] Weathered faces lined in pain

[01:37.39] Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand

[01:42.17] Now I understand

[01:46.98] What you tried to say to me

[01:51.26] And how you suffered for your sanity

[01:56.05] And how you tried to set them free

[01:58.99] They would not listen, they did not know how

[02:04.61] Perhaps they'll listen now

[02:07.80] For they could not love you

[02:12.09] But still your love was true

[02:16.87] And when no hope was left in sight

[02:20.59] On that starry, starry night

[02:23.54] You took your life, as lovers often do

[02:29.15] But I could've told you Vincent

[02:33.13] This world was never meant for

[02:35.25] One as beautiful as you

[02:41.89] Starry, starry night

[02:47.22] Portraits hung in empty halls

[02:52.28] Frame-less heads on nameless walls

[02:56.28] With eyes that watch the world and can't forget

[03:00.02] Like the strangers that you've met

[03:04.79] The ragged men in ragged clothes

[03:09.58] The silver thorn of bloody rose

[03:13.57] Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

[03:18.63] Now I think I know

[03:24.25] What you tried to say to me

[03:28.23] And how you suffered for your sanity

[03:33.84] And how you tried to set them free

[03:36.76] They would not listen, they're not listening still

[03:42.89] Perhaps they never will
