Vincent - Midday Sun[00:00:00]
Starry starry night[00:00:05]
Paint your palette blue and grey[00:00:10]
Look out on a summer's day[00:00:16]
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul [00:00:19]
Shadows on the hills[00:00:24]
Sketch the trees and the daffodils[00:00:29]
Catch the breeze and the winter chills[00:00:34]
In colors on the snowy linen land [00:00:38]
Now I understand[00:00:44]
What you tried to say to me[00:00:49]
How you suffered for your sanity[00:00:54]
How you tried to set them free [00:00:58]
They would not listen they did not know how[00:01:02]
Perhaps they'll listen now [00:01:08]
Starry starry night[00:01:13]
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze[00:01:17]
Swirling clouds in violet haze[00:01:23]
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue [00:01:27]
Colors changing hue[00:01:31]
Morning fields of amber grain[00:01:36]
Weathered faces lined in pain[00:01:41]
Are smoothed beneath the artist's loving hand [00:01:45]
Now I understand[00:01:49]
What you tried to say to me[00:01:53]
How you suffered for your sanity[00:01:58]
How you tried to set them free [00:02:03]
They would not listen they did not know how[00:02:06]
Perhaps they'll listen now [00:02:12]
For they could not love you[00:02:15]
But still your love was true[00:02:20]
And when no hope was left in sight on that[00:02:25]
Starry starry night [00:02:30]
You took your life as lovers often do [00:02:31]
But I could have told you Vincent[00:02:37]
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you [00:02:41]
Starry starry night[00:02:50]
Portraits hung in empty halls[00:02:55]
Frameless heads on nameless walls[00:03:00]
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget [00:03:04]
Like the stranger that you've met[00:03:08]
The ragged men in ragged clothes[00:03:12]
The silver thorn of bloddy rose[00:03:17]
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow [00:03:20]
Now I think I know[00:03:25]
What you tried to say to me[00:03:30]
How you suffered for your sanity[00:03:34]
How you tried to set them free [00:03:39]
They would not listen they're not listening still[00:03:42]
Perhaps they never will [00:03:48]
The End[00:03:55]
