Vincent

Starry, starry night

Paint your palette blue and gray

Look out on a summer's day

With eyes that know the darkness in my soulShadows on the hills

Sketch the trees and the daffodils

Catch the breeze and the winter chills

In colors on the snowy linen landNow, 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 nowStarry, starry night

Flaming flowers that brightly blaze

Swirling clouds in violet haze

Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blueColors changing hue

Morning fields of amber grain

Weathered faces lined in pain

Are soothed beneath the artist's loving handNow, 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 nowFor they could not love you

But still your love was true

And when no hope was left inside

On that starry, starry nightYou took your life as lovers often do

But I could have told you, Vincent

This world was never meant for one

As beautiful as youStarry, starry night

Portraits hung in empty halls

Frame less heads on nameless walls

With eyes that watch the world and can't forgetLike 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 snowNow, I think I know 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're not listening still

Perhaps they never will
