[00:-2.12]Ronan Keating - Vincent 
[00:-1.48]
[00:00.70]
[00:01.14]Starry, starry night
[00:05.73]Paint your palette blue and gray
[00:10.65]Look out on a summer's day
[00:14.02]With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
[00:17.99]Shadows on the hills
[00:22.87]Sketch the trees and the daffodils
[00:27.95]Catch the breeze and the winter chills
[00:31.62]In colors on the snowy linen land
[00:37.54]
[00:38.33]Now I understand
[00:43.20]What you tried to say to me
[00:47.53]How you suffered for your sanity
[00:52.74]How you tried to set them free
[00:56.21]They would not listen they did not know how
[01:01.83]Perhaps they'll listen now
[01:05.96]
[01:07.17]Starry, starry night
[01:12.10]Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
[01:17.14]Swirling clouds in violet haze
[01:20.81]Reflecting Vincent's eyes of China blue
[01:24.86]Colors changing hue
[01:29.90]Morning fields of amber grain
[01:35.00]Weathered faces lined in pain
[01:38.63]Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hands
[01:42.07]
[01:42.60]Now I understand
[01:47.59]What you tried to say to me
[01:51.98]How you suffered for your sanity
[01:57.02]How you tried to set them free
[02:00.02]They would not listen they did not know how
[02:05.78]Perhaps they'll listen now
[02:08.00]
[02:08.27]For they could not love you
[02:13.05]But still your love was true
[02:18.26]And when no hope was left in sight
[02:21.98]On that starry, starry night
[02:25.30]You took your life as lovers often do
[02:30.72]But I could have told you Vincent
[02:33.49]This world was never meant for one as
[02:36.80]beautiful as you
[02:40.44]
[02:42.59]Starry, starry night
[02:47.74]Portraits hung in empty halls
[02:52.58]Frameless heads on nameless walls
[02:56.18]With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
[03:00.46]Like the strangers that you've met
[03:04.51]The ragged men in ragged clothes
[03:09.55]The silver thorn on a bloody rose
[03:13.25]Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
[03:16.99]
[03:17.42]Now I think I know
[03:22.47]What you tried to say to me
[03:26.89]How you suffered for your sanity
[03:31.94]How you tried to set them free
[03:35.37]They would not listen they're not listening still
[03:40.87]Perhaps they never will
[03:51.94]
