Vincent - Don McLean

[00:00.47]Starry, starry night [00:04.77]Paint you...
[00:00.47]Starry, starry night
[00:04.77]Paint your palette blue and gray
[00:09.52]Look out on a summer's day
[00:12.72]With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
[00:17.30]Shadows on the hills
[00:20.43]Sketch the trees and the daffodils
[00:26.47]Catch the breeze and the winter chills
[00:30.36]In colors on the snowy linen land
[00:35.87]Now, I understand, what you tried to say to me
[00:45.00]And how you suffered for your sanity
[00:50.40]And how you tried to set them free
[00:54.12]They would not listen, they did not know how
[00:59.44]Perhaps they'll listen now
[01:03.45]Starry, starry night
[01:09.61]Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
[01:14.82]Swirling clouds in violet haze
[01:18.42]Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
[01:23.27]Colors changing hue
[01:25.62]Morning fields of amber grain
[01:32.63]Weathered faces lined in pain
[01:36.22]Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
[01:41.55]Now, I understand, what you tried to say to me
[01:49.54]And how you suffered for your sanity
[01:54.81]And how you tried to set them free
[01:58.40]They would not listen, they did not know how
[02:02.12]Perhaps they'll listen now
[02:07.26]For they could not love you
[02:09.45]But still your love was true
[02:14.40]And when no hope was left inside
[02:19.97]On that starry, starry night
[02:22.60]You took your life as lovers often do
[02:27.12]But I could have told you, Vincent
[02:31.67]This world was never meant for one
[02:34.79]As beautiful as you
[02:41.17]Starry, starry night
[02:44.98]Portraits hung in empty halls
[02:50.44]Frame less heads on nameless walls
[02:55.28]With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
[02:59.54]Like the strangers that you've met
[03:03.18]The ragged men in ragged clothes
[03:07.90]The silver thorn of bloody rose
[03:12.24]Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
[03:17.81]Now, I think I know what you tried to say to me
[03:26.52]And how you suffered for your sanity
[03:31.72]And how you tried to set them free
[03:35.88]They would not listen, they're not listening still
[03:39.85]Perhaps they never will
[03:45.84]
