Vincent - Studio Musicians (工作室音乐家)[00:00:00]
Starry starry night[00:00:06]
Paint your palette blue and grey[00:00:11]
Look out on a summer's day[00:00:16]
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul [00:00:20]
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[00:00:45]
What you tried to say to me[00:00:50]
How you suffered for your sanity[00:00:54]
How you tried to set them free [00:01:00]
They would not listen they did not know how[00:01:03]
Perhaps they'll listen now [00:01:08]
Starry starry night[00:01:14]
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze[00:01:19]
Swirling clouds in violet haze[00:01:24]
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue [00:01:28]
Colors changing hue[00:01:32]
Morning fields of amber grain[00:01:37]
Weathered faces lined in pain[00:01:43]
Are smoothed beneath the artist's loving hand [00:01:46]
Now I understand[00:01:51]
What you tried to say to me[00:01:56]
How you suffered for your sanity[00:02:00]
How you tried to set them free [00:02:06]
They would not listen they did not know how[00:02:09]
Perhaps they'll listen now [00:02:14]
For they could not love you[00:02:17]
But still your love was true[00:02:22]
And when no hope was left in sight on that[00:02:27]
Starry starry night [00:02:32]
You took your life as lovers often do [00:02:34]
But I could have told you Vincent[00:02:40]
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you [00:02:43]
Starry starry night[00:02:51]
Portraits hung in empty halls[00:02:56]
Frameless heads on nameless walls[00:03:02]
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget [00:03:06]
Like the strangers that you've met[00:03:09]
The ragged men in ragged clothes[00:03:13]
The silver thorn of bloddy rose[00:03:18]
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow [00:03:22]
Now I think I know[00:03:27]
What you tried to say to me[00:03:31]
How you suffered for your sanity[00:03:36]
How you tried to set them free [00:03:41]
They would not listen they're not listening still[00:03:45]
Perhaps they never will[00:03:51]
