Chyi Yu - Vincent

 

 

이 곡은 Don mclean 이 노래 하여 대단히 힛트한 곡으로  

반 고호의 Starry Night 라는 그림을 보고 감동하여 작사를 하고 작곡된 노래라 함

본 블로그의 팝송 카데고리에 Don mclean 과 Dana Winner 의 노래를 올린바 있음.  

 

 

 

           Vincent
                                 

   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 daffodils
   Catch the breeze and the winter chills
   In colours on the snowy linen land

   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

   Starry, starry night
   Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
   Swirling clouds and violet haze
   Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
   Colours changing hue
   Morning fields of amber grain
   Weathered faces lined in pain
   Are soothed beneath the artists' 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

   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
   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...
