Vicent Lyrics - Pod

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 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 

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 smoothed beneath the artist's loving hand. 

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. 

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 you vincent 

this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you. 

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 stranger that you've met 

the ragged men in ragged clothes 

the silver thorn of bloddy rose 

lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow. 

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.
