Don Mclean live 2007 - Vincent live 2007- Starry Starry Night lyrics

Words/Music: Don Mclean

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 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 field 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,
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 have told you, Vincent,
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you.

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.

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 would not listen, they're
not listening still.
Perhaps they never will.

I really love this song..awesome

[hopefloats57]

Fell in love with this song in the '70s & I still love it. It is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard, made more so by Don McLean's voice.

[ColdRolledSteel]

wow

[louisatanhuiying]

It was nicer when he was younger [watch the one when he was younger and his voice more smoothly defined]

[1lamafarmer]

There's a real depth to his voice in this performance, very reminiscent of Johnny Cash in his waning years. Brilliant.

[saargolfer]

Pure poetry for a brilliant and inspired artist.

[sauen20]

One of the most beautiful songs ever written. My father used to sing this for me when i was a kid. Hope you're coming to Norway some day!

@MikeEnriquez209 um dude never said he didn't. If you READ the comment i was responding to, he said that the guitar lick was difficult to learn which is why i said he should check out the chet atkins VERSION, not original, VERSION.

[MikeEnriquez209]

@barbedwireplayer Don Mclean wrote the song dude

[barbedwireplayer]
