[00:00.35]Starry, starry night
[00:05.77]Paint your palette blue and grey
[00:11.00]Look out on a summer's day
[00:14.43]With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
[00:18.77]Shadows on the hills
[00:23.79]Sketch the trees and the daffodils
[00:29.22]Catch the breeze and the winter chills
[00:32.70]In colors on the snowy linen land.
[00:38.93]
[00:39.73]Now I understand what you tried to say to me
[00:48.99]How you suffered for your sanity
[00:54.02]How you tried to set them free
[00:57.06]They would not listen, they did not know how
[01:02.23]Perhaps they'll listen now
[01:06.88]
[01:07.72]Starry, starry night
[01:12.76]Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
[01:18.21]Swirling clouds in violet haze
[01:21.74]Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
[01:26.37]Colors changing hue, morning fields of amber grain
[01:36.27]Weathered faces lined in pain
[01:39.90]Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
[01:44.28]Now I understand what you tried to say to me
[01:53.20]How you suffered for your sanity
[01:58.48]How you tried to set them free
[02:01.41]They would not listen, they did not know how
[02:06.29]Perhaps they'll listen now
[02:09.28]For they could not love you
[02:13.80]But still your love was true
[02:18.64]And when no hope was left in sight
[02:23.32]On that starry, starry night
[02:26.26]You took your life, as lovers often do
[02:32.33]But I could have told you, Vincent
[02:35.46]This world was never meant for one
[02:38.60]As beautiful as you
[02:41.38]
[02:44.92]Starry, starry night
[02:49.94]Portraits hung in empty halls
[02:53.98]Frameless head on nameless walls
[02:58.50]With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
[03:02.74]Like the strangers that you've met
[03:07.96]The ragged men in the ragged clothes
[03:11.89]The silver thorn of bloody rose
[03:16.17]Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
[03:20.51]Now I think I know what you tried to say to me
[03:30.22]How you suffered for your sanity
[03:35.09]How you tried to set them free
[03:37.78]They would not listen, they're not listening still
[03:44.26]Perhaps they never will...
