专辑:《鲸鱼岛新翻》

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 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, 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 smoothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Now I understand, what you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity, how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
For they could not love you, but still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside, 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
Starry, starry night, portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met, the ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken, on the virgin snow
Now I think I know, what you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity, how you tried to set them free
They will not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
