[00:09.60]Starry, starry night
[00:14.13]Paint your palette blue and gray
[00:18.77]Look out on a summer's day
[00:22.87]With eyes that know the darkness in my soul...
[00:29.25]Shadows on the hills
[00:33.66]Sketch the trees and the daffodils
[00:38.50]Catch the breeze and the winter chills
[00:42.87]In colors on the snowy linen land.
[00:49.34]Now I understand
[00:52.60]What you tried to say, to me
[00:58.88]And how you suffered for your sanity
[01:03.26]And how you tried to set them free:
[01:06.92]They would not listen; they did not know how --
[01:11.51]Perhaps they'll listen now.
[01:23.05]Starry, Starry night
[01:27.11]Portraits hung in empty halls
[01:30.58]Frameless heads on nameless walls
[01:35.91]With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
[01:42.46]Like the strangers that you've met
[01:48.29]The ragged men in ragged clothes
[01:52.49]The silver thorn, a bloody rose
[01:56.37]Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.
[02:02.60]Now I think I know
[02:06.34]What you tried to say, to me
[02:12.21]And how you suffered for your sanity
[02:16.62]And how you tried to set them free:
[02:20.48]They would not listen; they're not listening still --
[02:25.30]Perhaps they never will.
[02:31.06]For they could not love you
[02:35.35]But still, your love was true
[02:41.06]And when no hope was left inside
[02:44.85]On that starry, starry night
[02:47.48]You took your life as lovers often do --
[02:53.03]But I could've told you, Vincent:
[02:55.32]This world was never meant
[02:57.54]For one as beautiful as you.
