Song: Starry Starry Night
Artist: Don McLean
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
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
