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're not listening still
 

 

Perhaps, they never will

 

if  you  know  Chinese ,you will also be moved by its Chinese meaning~love it~
