45 Or 46 Songs That Weren't Good Enough To Go On Our Other Records
Starry, starry night 
Paint your palette blue and gray 
Look out on a summer day 
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul 
Shadows on the hill 
Sketch the trees and daffodils 
Catch the breeze and 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 
Portraits hung in empty halls 
Frameless heads on nameless walls 
With eyes that watch the world 
And can't forget like strangers 
That you've met 
Ragged men in ragged clothes 
The 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 
How you suffered for your sanity 
And you tried to set them free: 
They would not listen 
They're not listening still 
Perhaps they never will 
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've told you, Vincent 
This world was never meant for one 
As beautiful as you.
