Starry starry night
|
Paint your palette blue and gray
|
Look out on a summer's day
|
With eyes that know the darkness
|
in my soul
|
Shadows on the hills
|
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
|
Catch the breeze
|
and the winter chills
|
In colors on the snowy linen land
|
Now I understand
|
What you tried to say to me
|
And how you suffered
|
for your sanity
|
And how you tried to set them free
|
They would not listen
|
they did not know how
|
Perhaps they'll listen now
|
Starry starry night
|
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
|
Swirling clouds in violet haze
|
Reflect in Vincent's eyes
|
of china blue
|
Colors changing hue
|
Morning fields of amber grain
|
Weathered faces lined in pain
|
Are soothed beneath the artist's
|
loving hand
|
Now I understand
|
What you tried to say to me
|
And how you suffered
|
for your sanity
|
And how you tried to set them free
|
They would not listen
|
they did not know how
|
Perhaps they'll listen now
|
For they could not love you
|
But still your love was true
|
And when no hope was left inside
|
On that starry starry night
|
You took your life as
|
lovers often do
|
But I could've told you Vincent
|
This world was never meant
|
For one as beautiful as you
|
|
Like the strangers that you've met
|
The ragged men in ragged clothes
|
The silver thorn a bloody rose
|
Lie crushed and broken
|
on the virgin snow
|
Now I think I know
|
What you tried to say to me
|
How you suffered
|
for your sanity
|
And how you tried to set them free
|
They would not listen
|
they're not listening still
|
Perhaps they never will
|
