Starry Night

Starry starry night Paint your palette blue and grey
Look out on a summer's day

With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills Sketch the trees and daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills

In colors on the snowy linen land

Now I understand what you try to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, They did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen you now

Starry starry night Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Rling 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 try to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, They did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen you now

For they could not love you But 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

Like the stranger that you're met
The ragged man in ragged cloth
The silver thorn in a blood rose
Lies crushed and broken on the virgin snow
Now I think I know what you try to say to me
That how you suffered for your sanity
And how you try to set them free
They would not listen they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will
