Lianne La Havas - "Starry Starry Night" (Loving Vincent OST)
Starry, Starry night Paint your palette blue and green 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 you 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 sooth beneath the artist's loving hand
Oh, 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, 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 of ten 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 Frame less head on name less walls with eyes that watch the world and can't for get
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 Oh, What you tried to say to me How you suffered for you sanity How you tried to set them free They would not listen they're not listening Still Perhaps they never will
