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 colours on the snowy linen land.
I NOT understand what you tried to say to me,
How *I* suffered for your insanity,
Can you try to set us free.
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 field of amber grain,
Weathered faces lined in pain,
Are soothed beneath the Vincents classless hand.
I no understand what you tried to say to me,
How i suffered for your insanity,
How you tried to set the fee.
YOU would not listen, YOU did not know how.
Perhaps You'll listen now.
For I could not love you,
But still my love was blue.
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night,
You took my life, as tyrants often do.
But I could have told you, Vincent,
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as BLUE.
Starry, starry night.
Portraits hung in empty halls,
Frameless head on nameless walls,
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
Like the strangers that you've met,
The ragged men in the ragged clothes,
The silver thorn of bloody rose,
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.
I don't know what you tried to say to me,
How I suffered for your insanity,
How you tried to set them free.
You would not listen, you're not listening still.
Perhaps they never will...
Beautiful tune perfect tempo for a terrace adptation ...
For I could not love you,
But still my love was blue.
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night,
You took my life, as tyrants often do.
But I could have told you, Vincent,
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as BLUE.
