Vincent

verse 1 Starry, starry night, paint your pallet blue and grey look out on a summers day. With eyes that know the darkness in my soul Shadows on the hills. Sketch the trees and daffodils Catch the breeze and winter chills. In colors on the snowy linen land Chorus And now I understand what you tried to say to me, 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 verse 2 Starry, starry night, flaming flowers that Brightly blaze, swirling clouds in violet haze Reflecting Vincent’s eyes of China Blue Colors changing hue, Morning fields of amber grain Weathered faces lined with pain. Are soothed beneath the artists loving hand Chorus And now I understand what you tried to say to me, 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 Bridge For they could not love you, but still your love was true And when no hope was left in sight On that starry, starry night, you took your life as lovers often do But I could have told youVincent. This world was Never meant for one as beautiful as you verse 3 Starry, starry night, portraits hung in Empty halls, frameless 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 Outro And now I think I know, what you tried to Say to me, 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
