Goulding, Ellie - Vincent Lyrics
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
Catch the breeze and the 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
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in a 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
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 in sight
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
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 strangers that you've met
The ragged men in their raggy 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

Love This Song so much, Vincent big artist big soul😍
j'adore ta chanson
Hey! My name is Vincent, but I love this song.
Es arte completamente ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
What a voice ❤
I know she didn't write this song, and it's a beautiful cover. But the only problem I have is with the line,
"You took your life, as lovers often do."
It ruins the flow of the song and leaves behind a grave misunderstanding of this wonderful human being.
Don McLean wrote this song back in 1971, while many percieve his death as a suicide, there is evidence that this was actually a murder. He was in rehab for recovery, had written letters to his brother Theo speaking of a light at the end of a long tunnel. How he was reaching this point, and created his works not out of this tortured feeling, but with the hope for a better future. He was optimistic near the end. He left the place he had been staying in with his canvas and supplies, and returned bloody, with none of his items. There are beliefs it could've been a friend's younger brother who had bullied him with others in that town. They owned a gun similar to the suspected gun Vincent was shot with, which mysteriously vanished. Not only that, but the boy was soon gone after this incident. If this doesn't scream suspicious then I don't know what does. It could've happened in a field, his supplies were never recovered. Vincent could've protected the boy by letting them believe he had done it himself.
I don't believe he killed hinself. With such a beautiful ode to this lovely artist, that lyric overall isn't a good part. How does the lovers part make any sense unless he is making a comparison to Romeo and Juliet, who killed themselves in this story, perhaps he is saying it to be a tragedy when we lost this man from life? I have much more research to conduct, if anyone has other opinions on what I wrote or if the song in general. Please feel free to share!
queen 🖤
my favorite cover 🖤
I know I am not gonna get likes here but I can't stop myself from commenting. Love to ellie
👏❤💚💜🌹🌻🎶🎼😊
Amo❤️❤️❤️
my song
Beautiful cover of a gorgeous song
This is the type of music that should be well-known.
The best version of my favorite song 💚
I am from Indonesia, and who want to tell me what is 'vincent?
Vincent van gogh, this song is about him :)
@Amara Beatrice thank you
Great version! If you believe the conspiracy theory then Vincent was murdered and did not commit suicide.
Outstanding
Sounds like a tired sheep singing itself a lullaby
Hey vincent❤

You Are So Talented And Beautiful I Think Everyone On Earth Should Love You😘❤🌺🌸🌹🌷🌻🍀🌱🌲🌿🍂🌴
Bloody beautiful!
I don't think there is someone more perfect than her to cover this song. it gives me goosebumps. she is so special and sounds like an angel
I'm Vincent. 😂😁😋 I love Ellie. And she is one of my favorite stars. ❤
🐐🖤
This song sounds beautiful!
Her rendition almost make me cry.
what a shallow human
cant she come up with her own songs
and if she sings the ART of others she should at the very least sing it properly
does she honestly think any twist she puts on this song is going to make it better?
she should concentrate on writing her own songs instead of re-writing songs out of her league
Don mclean actually complimented her cover...
She as such a beautiful tone to her voice love this
👏👏👏👌
this is a cover. the original is by Don McLean💕
I like This song!
i feel honoured lmao
Wonderful! ❤🇧🇷
This song makes me so emotional. Especially when she says the line about Vincent's solo being to beautiful for this world😭❤️ It gives me all the feelings💔

Love this music
love you ellie you are a awesome person I've listened to you when I was just 5 years old. my name is Aubrey Payton I'm 13 years old. I was born with a thing called fetal alcohol syndrome. it effects my whole life because my mom drank when she was pregnant with me. I might not pass the 7th grade and I might not learn to drive a car I most likely will have to be with a adult all my life but you have cheered me up when I get sad about my life. but you also helped me when my step brother died last October thank you ellie and have a great day love youRead more
This song is beautiful and the speech is perfect
Nice version but, I prefer the original written and performed by Don Mclean.
I dedicate this song to a dear friend of mine and one of the purest and most beautiful souls I've ever known. "This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you". Rest in peace, Walter ❤
so beautiful thank you elli
It's an Amazing...

I am normally not a big fan of cover songs especially when the song being covered is iconic as Vincent.
I came to this video from a link from another of Ellie's song and I am glad I chanced it.
With the arrangement combined with her super delicate diction, this cover is emotionally excellent. Thank you Ellie for this song.
Es hermoso 💖
Sometimes, I just listen to this with headphones and it cleans my soul.
Vincent van Gogh was truly beautiful and so is this.
Stopppp ur making me cry
Love you bby ? Rly
Relaxing music
Simply WOW!!
