Vincent
Starry, starry night
- 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 suffered for your sanity
- And 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 suffered for your sanity
- And 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 in sight
- 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
- Starry, starry night
- Portraits hung in empty halls
- Frameless heads on nameless walls
- With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
- Like the strangers that you've met
- The ragged men in ragged clothes
- The silver thorn of bloody rose
- Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
- Now I think I know
- What you tried to say to me
- And suffered for your sanity
- And tried to set them free
- They would not listen
- They're not listening still
- Perhaps they never will
