Vincent - Don McLean

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
Reflecting 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
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 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
A silver thorn on a 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

My great,great,uncle knew Vincent Van Gogh when Vincent was living in Arles. He was just a kid at the time, but he'd follow Vincent when he'd leave on his morning treks to do his outdoor painting . He said he really liked Vincent because he was so intelligent and funny, but he had a temper and seemed to always be in a rush. He'd run errands for Vincent going into town bringing him things to eat or drink.Vincent made some sketches of uncle Claude, which apparently have gotten lost over cont.

i ask myself why many people who suffer today and yesterday have to born?i mean if we come here only to suffer there is no sense of being born.vincent was born to paint but nobody gave him money then he died poor and now his pictures are valued on millions.he was born to paint so we could sell his pictures?when i see people in the streets begging i dont understand why they were born,born to beg? this must be hell

I drawed that first picture they should (after they should him) in school

Já vi pagar para fazer anúncio, mas para incomodar não.

Faça-me um favor!!

For the longest time I had no idea he was singing about Vincent van Gogh. I thought this was about someone he'd known.

No final do clip diz que ele comoeteu suicidio em 1980, mas foi em 1890. Houve um pequeno engano. Mas o vídeo é incrível, maravilhoso, valeu o tremendo bom gosto. Parabéns!!!
