[00:12.310] |
Starry, starry night |
[00:17.040] |
Paint your palette |
[00:19.850] |
blue and grey |
[00:23.170] |
Look out on a |
[00:25.340] |
summer's day |
[00:27.280] |
With eyes that know |
[00:28.800] |
the darkness in my soul |
[00:31.970] |
Shadows on the hills |
[00:36.920] |
Sketch the trees |
[00:38.790] |
and the daffodils |
[00:42.270] |
Catch the breeze |
[00:44.200] |
and the winter chills |
[00:46.860] |
In colors on the |
[00:48.500] |
snowy linen land |
[00:53.380] |
Now I understand |
[00:58.850] |
what you tried to say to me |
[01:03.900] |
How you suffered |
[01:06.270] |
for your sanity |
[01:09.940] |
How you tried |
[01:11.350] |
to set them free |
[01:13.900] |
They would not listen |
[01:15.890] |
they did not know how |
[01:20.140] |
Perhaps they'll listen now |
[01:26.050] |
Starry, starry night |
[01:31.290] |
Flaming flowers that |
[01:33.710] |
brightly blaze |
[01:36.730] |
Swirling |
[01:38.220] |
clouds in violet haze |
[01:41.110] |
Reflect in Vincent's |
[01:42.800] |
eyes of China blue |
[01:45.390] |
Colors changing hue |
[01:50.320] |
morning field of amber grain |
[01:56.180] |
Weathered faces |
[01:57.970] |
lined in pain |
[02:00.200] |
Are soothed beneath the |
[02:01.990] |
artist's loving hand |
[02:04.450] |
Now I understand |
[02:09.720] |
what you tried to say to me |
[02:14.820] |
How you suffered |
[02:17.200] |
for your sanity |
[02:20.240] |
How you tried |
[02:21.760] |
to set them free |
[02:24.330] |
They would not listen |
[02:26.300] |
they did not know how |
[02:30.330] |
Perhaps they'll listen now |
[02:33.810] |
For they could not love you |
[02:38.250] |
But still your love was true |
[02:44.400] |
And when no |
[02:46.530] |
hope was left in sight |
[02:48.800] |
On that starry, starry night |
[02:52.680] |
You took your life |
[02:54.560] |
as lovers often do |
[02:58.120] |
But I could have told you |
[03:00.970] |
Vincent |
[03:02.300] |
This world was never meant |
[03:05.180] |
for oneAs beautiful as you |
[03:12.300] |
Starry, starry night |
[03:16.800] |
Portraits hung in empty halls |
[03:23.620] |
Frameless head on |
[03:25.690] |
nameless walls |
[03:27.760] |
With eyes that watch |
[03:29.560] |
the world and can't forget |
[03:32.010] |
Like the strangers |
[03:33.070] |
that you've met |
[03:37.350] |
The ragged men |
[03:39.400] |
in the ragged clothes |
[03:42.910] |
The silver thorn of |
[03:44.990] |
bloody rose |
[03:46.920] |
Lie crushed and broken |
[03:48.740] |
on the virgin snow |
[03:51.490] |
Now I think I know |
[03:56.990] |
what you tried to say to me |
[04:02.110] |
How you suffered |
[04:03.900] |
for your sanity |
[04:06.860] |
How you |
[04:07.960] |
tried to set them free |
[04:11.050] |
They would not listen |
[04:13.320] |
they're not listening still |
[04:18.530] |
Perhaps they never will |
