Sung By "Don Mclean"[00:00:01]
Starry starry night[00:00:02]
Paint your palette blue and grey[00:00:04]
Look out on a summer's day[00:00:10]
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul [00:00:13]
Shadows on the hills[00:00:18]
Sketch the trees and the daffodils[00:00:22]
Catch the breeze and the winter chills[00:00:27]
In colors on the snowy linen land [00:00:31]
Now I understand[00:00:37]
What you tried to say to me[00:00:42]
How you suffered for your sanity[00:00:46]
How you tried to set them free [00:00:52]
They would not listen they did not know how[00:00:55]
Perhaps they'll listen now [00:01:00]
Starry starry night[00:01:06]
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze[00:01:10]
Swirling clouds in violet haze[00:01:15]
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue [00:01:19]
Colors changing hue[00:01:24]
Morning fields of amber grain[00:01:29]
Weathered faces lined in pain[00:01:33]
Are smoothed beneath the artist's loving hand [00:01:38]
Now I understand[00:01:42]
What you tried to say to me[00:01:47]
How you suffered for your sanity[00:01:51]
How you tried to set them free [00:01:56]
They would not listen they did not know how[00:01:59]
Perhaps they'll listen now [00:02:04]
For they could not love you[00:02:08]
But still your love was true[00:02:12]
And when no hope was left in sight on that[00:02:17]
Starry starry night [00:02:21]
You took your life as lovers often do [00:02:24]
But I could have told you Vincent[00:02:29]
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you [00:02:33]
Starry starry night[00:02:43]
Portraits hung in empty halls[00:02:48]
Frameless heads on nameless walls[00:02:52]
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget [00:02:56]
Like the stranger that you've met[00:03:00]
The ragged men in ragged clothes[00:03:05]
The silver thorn of bloddy rose[00:03:09]
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow [00:03:13]
Now I think I know[00:03:19]
What you tried to say to me[00:03:24]
How you suffered for your sanity[00:03:28]
How you tried to set them free [00:03:33]
They would not listen they're not listening still[00:03:37]
Perhaps they never will [00:03:43]
The End[00:03:46]
