Vincent - Dana Winner

[00:04.680]Starry' starry night.
[00:11.625]Paint your palette blue and grey'
[00:18.360]Look out on a summer's day'
[00:23.887]With eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
[00:27.506]Shadows on the hills'
[00:31.998]Sketch the trees and the daffodils'
[00:37.200]Catch the breeze and the winter chills'
[00:40.680]In colors on the snowy linen land.
[00:47.800]Now i understand what you tried to say to me'
[00:58.360]How you suffered for your sanity'
[01:03.500]How you tried to set them free.
[01:07.410]They would not listen' they did not know how.
[01:14.500]Perhaps they'll listen now.
[01:19.639]Starry' starry night.
[01:25.300]Flaming flowers that brightly blaze'
[01:30.850]Swirling clouds in violet haze'
[01:34.620]Reflect in vincent's eyes of china blue.
[01:39.600]Colors changing hue' morning field of amber grain'
[01:49.700]Weathered faces lined in pain'
[01:51.689]Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand.
[01:54.500]Now i understand what you tried to say to me'
[02:00.987]How you suffered for your sanity'
[02:05.786]How you tried to set them free.
[02:10.396]They would not listen' they did not know how.
[02:17.459]Perhaps they'll listen now.
[02:19.885]For they could not love you'
[02:24.374]But still your love was true.
[02:29.568]And when no hope was left in sight
[02:32.736]On that starry' starry night'
[02:36.755]You took your life' as lovers often do.
[02:43.277]But i could have told you' vincent'
[02:46.177]This world was never meant for one
[02:49.850]As beautiful as you.
[02:56.378]Starry' starry night.
[03:02.689]Portraits hung in empty halls'
[03:06.985]Frameless head on nameless walls'
[03:10.985]With eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
[03:15.659]Like the strangers that you've met'
[03:20.768]The ragged men in the ragged clothes'
[03:23.495]The silver thorn of bloody rose'
[03:25.315]Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.
[03:30.968]Now i think i know what you tried to say to me'
[03:39.655]How you suffered for your sanity'
[03:45.678]How you tried to set them free.
[03:48.645]They would not listen' they're not listening still.
[03:58.059]Perhaps they never will.
