Susan Werner - Vincent lyrics
Your rating:
Starry, starry night Paint your palette blue and gray Look out on a summer's day With eyes that know the darkness of the soul Shadows on the hill 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 And how you tried to set them free They wouldn't listen, they did not know how Perhaps they'll listen now Starry, starry night Flaming flowers brightly blaze Swirling clouds in violet haze Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue Colors are changing hue Morning fields of amber grain Weathered faces lined in pain All soothed beneath the artist's loving hand Now I understand just what you tried to say to me And how you suffered for your sanity And how you tried to set them free They wouldn't listen, they did not know how Perhaps they'll listen now And no, they did 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
