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
and 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 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
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 a 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...
Vincent/Don McLean

仔細看歌詞 才明白這首歌所以叫梵谷之歌的理由
but i could have told you Vincent
this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
這句話深深的打動我
讓我想到所有逝去者的美麗
嘿 Vincent 有問題的是這個世界 不是你

為什麼鳥兒還繼續歌唱
為什麼星星還在天上閃耀
他們不知道嗎？
世界已經結束
--The end of the world--
