文本歌词

Starry starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know
The darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees
and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and
the winter chills
In colors on
the snowy linen land
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered
for your sanity
How you tried to
Set them free
They would not listen
They did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
Starry starry night
Flaming flowers
that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes
of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath
The artist's loving hand
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered
For your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen
They did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
For they could not love you
still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry starry night
You took your life
as lovers often do
But I could have
told you Vincent
This world was never
meant for one
As beautiful as you
Starry starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frame less heads
on nameless walls
With eyes that
Watch the world
and can't forget
Like 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 snow
Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered
for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen
They're not listening still
Perhaps they never will
