[00:18.290] |
Starry, starry night |
[00:25.150] |
Paint your palette blue and gray |
[00:31.680] |
Look out on a summer's day |
[00:36.370] |
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul |
[00:41.650] |
Shadows on the hills |
[00:47.860] |
Sketch the trees and daffodils |
[00:54.520] |
Catch the breeze and the winter chills |
[01:01.390] |
In colors on the snowy linen land |
[01:06.160] |
|
[01:08.460] |
Now I understand what you tried to say to me |
[01:20.910] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
[01:27.160] |
How you tried to set them free |
[01:30.540] |
They would not listen, they did not know how |
[01:37.500] |
Perhaps, they'll listen now |
[01:43.540] |
|
[01:45.330] |
Starry, starry night |
[01:51.830] |
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze |
[01:58.090] |
Swirling clouds in violet haze |
[02:02.850] |
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue |
[02:08.280] |
Colors changing hue |
[02:14.520] |
Morning fields of amber grain |
[02:21.370] |
Weathered faces lined in pain |
[02:25.930] |
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand |
[02:30.740] |
|
[02:31.020] |
Now I understand what you tried to say to me |
[02:43.550] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
[02:49.650] |
And how you tried to set them free |
[02:53.030] |
They would not listen, they did not know how |
[03:00.770] |
Perhaps, they'll listen now |
[03:04.460] |
For they could not love you |
[03:10.330] |
And still your love was true |
[03:17.460] |
And when no hope was left inside on that starry, starry night |
[03:26.290] |
You took your life as lovers often do |
[03:33.100] |
But I could have told you, Vincent |
[03:36.900] |
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you |
[03:47.860] |
|
[03:50.130] |
Starry, starry night |
[03:57.010] |
Portraits hung in empty hall |
[04:03.660] |
Frameless heads on nameless walls |
[04:08.250] |
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget |
[04:13.880] |
Like the strangers that you've met |
[04:20.960] |
The ragged man in ragged clothes |
[04:27.360] |
The silver thorn of bloody rose |
[04:32.170] |
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow |
[04:38.040] |
|
[04:38.440] |
Now I think I know what you tried to say to me |
[04:50.470] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
[04:57.470] |
Then how you tried to set them free |
[05:02.000] |
They would not listen, they're not listening still |
[05:09.900] |
Perhaps, they never will.. |
[05:18.210] |
