Vincent (starry, Starry Night) Lyrics

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 daffodils Catch the breeze and 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 And 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 They did not listen, they did not know how Perhaps they'll listen now Starry, starry night
