    Vincent (Aiza Seguerra)

    Starry starry night, paint your palette blue and grey
    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 soothed beneath the artist's loving hand

    Chorus:
    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 stranger that you've met, the ragged man in ragged clothes
    The silver thorn of 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 you sanity How you tried to set them free
    They would not listen they're not listening still
    Perhaps they never will.
