Rare Photo of Vincent Van Gogh Brought to Life Through Colorization LYRICS for " Starry, Starry Night "

Lyrics [There was a boy Very strange, enchanted boy They say he wandered very far Very far over land and sea A little shy and sad of eye But very wise was he And then one day A magic day he passed my way Though we talked of many thing, fools and kings This he said to me "The greatest thing you'll ever learn Is just to love and be loved in return" 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 soothed beneath the artist's loving hand 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 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 in sight On that starry, starry night You took your life, as lovers often do But I could've 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 this world and can't forget Like the strangers that you've met The ragged men in ragged clothes A 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 And how you tried to set them free They would not listen, they're not listening still Perhaps they never will You're gonna do that for me? I'm gonna do this for you] Source: Musixmatch Songwriters: Don Mclean Vincent lyrics © Songs Of Universal Inc., Benny Bird Co. Inc.
