| [00:00.60] |
Starry, starry night |
| [00:05.44] |
Paint your palette blue and gray |
| [00:10.49] |
Look out on a summer's day |
| [00:14.16] |
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul |
| [00:18.41] |
Shadows on the hills |
| [00:23.67] |
Sketch the trees and daffodils |
| [00:28.70] |
Catch the breeze and the winter chills |
| [00:32.31] |
In colors on the snowy linen land |
| [00:38.93] |
Now I understand |
| [00:43.78] |
what you tried to say to me |
| [00:48.57] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
| [00:53.52] |
How you tried to set them free |
| [00:56.30] |
They would not listen, |
| [00:58.51] |
they did not know how |
| [01:02.20] |
Perhaps, they'll listen now |
| [01:07.66] |
Starry, starry night |
| [01:12.60] |
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze |
| [01:17.80] |
Swirling clouds in violet haze |
| [01:21.22] |
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue |
| [01:25.46] |
Colors changing hue |
| [01:30.45] |
Morning fields of amber grain |
| [01:35.57] |
Weathered faces lined in pain |
| [01:39.05] |
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand |
| [01:43.18] |
Now I understand |
| [01:48.32] |
what you tried to say to me |
| [01:52.65] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
| [01:57.69] |
And how you tried to set them free |
| [02:00.66] |
They would not listen, |
| [02:02.66] |
they did not know how |
| [02:06.56] |
Perhaps, they'll listen now |
| [02:09.52] |
For they could not love you |
| [02:14.36] |
And still your love was true |
| [02:19.67] |
And when no hope was left inside |
| [02:23.41] |
on that starry,starry night |
| [02:25.74] |
You took your life as lovers often do |
| [02:31.55] |
But I could have told you, Vincent |
| [02:34.87] |
This world was never meant |
| [02:37.00] |
for one as beautiful as you |
| [02:44.28] |
Starry, starry night |
| [02:49.00] |
Portraits hung in empty hall |
| [02:54.48] |
Frameless heads on nameless walls |
| [02:57.98] |
With eyes that watch |
| [03:00.23] |
the world and can't forget |
| [03:02.12] |
Like the strangers that you've met |
| [03:05.92] |
The ragged man in ragged clothes |
| [03:10.64] |
The silver thorn of bloody rose |
| [03:14.46] |
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow |
| [03:18.40] |
|
| [03:18.65] |
Now I think I know |
| [03:23.38] |
what you tried to say to me |
| [03:28.01] |
How you suffered for your sanity |
| [03:33.10] |
Then how you tried to set them free |
| [03:36.03] |
They would not listen, |
| [03:37.81] |
they're not listening still |
| [03:42.06] |
Perhaps, they never will.. |
