Karaoké Vincent (Starry, Starry Night) Josh Groban

Starry, starry night paint your palette blue and grey

Look out on a summer's day with eyes that know the darkness in my soul

Shadows on the hills sketch the trees and daffodils

Catch the breeze and the winter chills

In colours of the snowy linen land

Now I understand what you tried to say to me

And 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

Starry, starry night flaming flowers that brightly blaze

Swirling clouds and violet haze reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue

Colours 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

And 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 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

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

And 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
