1
Starry, starry night
2
Paint your pallet blue and gray
3
Look out on a summer's day
4
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
5
Shadows on the hills
6
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
7
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
8
In colors on the snowy linen land
9
And now I understand
10
What you tried to say to me
11
How you suffered for your sanity
12
How you tried to set them free
13
They would not listen
14
They did not know how
15
Perhaps they'll listen now
16
Starry, starry night
17
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
18
Swirling clouds of violet haze
19
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue
20
And now I understand
21
What you tried to say to me
22
How you suffered for your sanity
23
How you tried to set them free
24
Perhaps they'll listen now
25
For they could not love you
26
But still your love was true
27
And when no hope was left in sight
28
On that starry, starry night
29
You took your life as lovers often do
30
But I could have told you Vincent
31
This world was never meant
32
For one as beautiful as you
33
Starry, starry night
34
Portraits hung in empty halls
35
Frameless heads on nameless walls
36
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
37
Like the stranger that you've met
38
The ragged men in ragged clothes
39
The silver thorn of bloody rose
40
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
41
And now I think I know
42
What you tried to say to me
43
How you suffered for your sanity
44
How you tried to set them free
45
They would not listen
46
They're not listening still
47
Perhaps they never will
