Starry starry night
paint your palette(調色盤) blue and grey
look out on a summer's day
with eyes that know the
darkness in my soul.
Shadows(影子) on the hills
sketch(素描) the trees and the daffodils(水仙花)
catch the breeze(微風) and the winter chills
in colors on the snowy linen(內襯) land.
And now I understand what you tried to say to me
how you suffered(遭受) for your sanity(精神狀態)
how you tried to set them free.
They would not listen
they did not know how
perhaps(或許) they'll listen now.
Starry starry night
flaming(火焰) flowers that brightly blaze(熊熊燃燒)
swirling(旋渦) clouds in violet(紫蘿蘭) haze(薄霧) reflect(反射) in
Vincent's eyes of China blue.
Colors changing hue (色調)
morning fields of amber(琥珀色) grain(穀物)
weathered(受盡風霜) faces lined(刻線) in pain
are soothed(平撫) beneath the artist's loving hand.
And 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 don’t 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 (你取走你的性命)
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 stranger that you've met
the ragged(破爛) men in ragged(破爛) clothes
the silver thorn(刺) of bloody(血紅) rose
lie crushed(壓碎) and broken
on the virgin(初次) snow.
And 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
list'ning still
perhaps they never will.
