53_-_VINCENT
[00:02.83] Paint your palette blue and gray
[00:09.83] Look out on a summer's day
[00:15.08] With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
[00:22.33] Shadows on the hills
[00:25.83] Sketch the trees and the daffodils
[00:32.84] Catch the breeze and the winter chills
[00:39.33] In colors on the snowy linen land
[00:45.85] Now I understand
[00:53.58] What you tried to say to me
[00:58.58] And how you suffered for your sanity
[01:05.82] And how you tried to set them free
[01:11.84] They would not listen, they did not know how
[01:15.83] Perhaps they'll listen now
[01:23.83] Starry, starry night
[01:29.34] Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
[01:36.86] Swirling clouds in violet haze
[01:42.83] Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
[01:49.84] Colors changing hue
[01:53.58] Morning fields of amber grain
[01:59.85] Weathered faces lined in pain
[02:06.58] Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
[02:14.83] Now I understand
[02:18.84] What you tried to say to me
[02:23.84] And how you suffered for your sanity
[02:30.84] And how you tried to set them free
[02:36.33] They would not listen, they did not know how
[02:40.34] Perhaps they'll listen now
[02:47.84] For they could not love you
[02:52.58] But still your love was true
[02:58.58] And when no hope was left in sight
[03:06.33] On that starry, starry night
[03:09.33] You took your life, as lovers often do
[03:15.08] But I could've told you Vincent
[03:20.58] This world was never meant for
[03:24.82] One as beautiful as you
[03:30.33] Starry, starry night
[03:39.59] Portraits hung in empty halls
[03:46.09] Frame-less heads on nameless walls
[03:52.34] With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
[03:58.33] Like the strangers that you've met
[04:04.58] The ragged men in ragged clothes
[04:10.34] The silver thorn of bloody rose
[04:16.83] Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
[04:22.85] Now I think I know
[04:29.60] What you tried to say to me
[04:35.08] And how you suffered for your sanity
[04:41.08] And how you tried to set them free
[04:47.85] They would not listen, they're not listening still
[04:53.33] Perhaps they never will
