Vincent
Julio Iglesias Lyrics

Starry starry night
The beauty of the night sky creates an overwhelming feeling of awe.

Paint your palette blue and gray
Use colors that represent depression, sorrow, and sadness to express emotions through art.

Look out on a summer's day
Look upon a bright, sunny day with a sense of longing for something deeper than the superficial beauty.

With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
With a deep understanding of the inner turmoil and despair that drives one's artistic expression.

Shadows on the hills
The darkness of the hills suggests hidden depths and complexities beneath their surface.

Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Represent the beauty of nature through drawing, capturing the essence and spirit of each element.

Catch the breeze and the winter chills
Through art, capture the fleeting moments of nature - the ever-changing, dynamic forces that shape our world.

In colors on the snowy linen land
Represent these beautiful, elusive moments in art, capturing the essence and beauty of the world in paint or ink.

Now I understand
After reflecting on your life and your work, I truly understand your vision and your message.

What you tried to say to me
I understand the meaning behind your art and what you were trying to convey through it.

How you suffered for your sanity
I recognize the mental and emotional anguish that you went through in order to create such stirring, powerful art.

How you tried to set them free
You used your art to challenge people's perspectives and free them from preconceived notions and limiting beliefs.

They would not listen they did not know how
Unfortunately, your message and your art were not widely accepted or embraced by the world around you.

Perhaps they'll listen now
However, after your passing, people have started to appreciate your art and understand the message you were trying to convey.

Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Vibrant, intense colors that symbolize life and passion in your art.

Swirling clouds in violet haze
The unpredictable and ever-changing nature of the world and its beauty, captured in your art through color and form.

Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Your own vision and perspective on the world, which is conveyed through your art as a reflection of your unique life experiences.

Colors changing hue
The world is always changing, and your art captures that change in its ever-shifting colors and tones.

Morning fields of amber grain
The warmth and beauty of the natural world captured through vibrant colors and textures in your work.

Weathered faces lined in pain
The human condition and the suffering of individuals, which your art expresses with honesty and empathy.

Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Through your art, you bring comfort and understanding to those who experience pain, loss, or sadness.

For they could not love you
The world was often cruel and unaccepting of your artistic vision and your personal struggles.

But still your love was true
Despite the hardships you faced, you persisted in creating art and expressing yourself fully and honestly.

And when no hope was left inside
Despite your best efforts to create and connect with others, you often felt a deep sense of despair and hopelessness within yourself.

On that starry starry night
Your tragic death, which came as a result of your own pain and suffering.

You took your life as lovers often do
In a moment of deep despair, you ended your own life, succumbing to the pain and demons that plagued you throughout your life.

But I could have told you Vincent
I wish I could have reached out to you and helped you to see the beauty and joy in life that you couldn't always find on your own.

This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
The world can be a cruel and harsh place, especially for those who feel everything so deeply and vividly, as you did.

Portraits hung in empty halls
Even though your art lives on, there is often an emptiness and hollowness in the world without your presence.

Frameless heads on nameless walls
Your face and your work may be recognized, but there is often a lack of real understanding or connection to your true self.

With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Your unique perspective and experience of the world shines through in your work, even after your passing.

Like the strangers that you've met
Your art continues to inspire and move people, even those who have never met you or known you personally.

The ragged men in ragged clothes
Your work often portrayed the struggles and hardships faced by those who were marginalized or forgotten by society.

The silver thorn of bloody rose
Your use of vivid, often disturbing imagery to highlight the pain and suffering in the world.

Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
The harsh reality of life and death, contrasted with the beauty and purity of the natural world.

They did not listen, they're not listening still
Despite the passage of time, many people still fail to fully appreciate or understand the depth and meaning of your art.

Perhaps they never will
Despite all efforts to spread your message and share your art with the world, there will always be those who cannot or will not understand.
