John Willoughby - Vincent, Vincent (feat. Allyson Murrell) Lyrics

Look up to the starry night
The humbling blues, the cosmic white
Behold the ocean of hues

The waves of stars bewitch the mind
They hold for ransom those who find
The passion of the painter's hands

And I am waiting for the day
To see the world the way he did
To read the words on canvas said

Vincent, Vincent tell me how
The world has failed you once again
They couldn't see the stars were brighter in your eyes
Vincent, Vincent show the world
How they brought you to your knees
You just wanted them to see
The starry night inside

Look into the little town
The church that brings him home again
A home he longs so dearly for

Behold the rolling azure hills
That move with grace like ocean waves
Following the sun-kissed moon

And was that tree the dark within
Black enough to break the night
But not so great to hide your light

Vincent, Vincent tell me how
The world has failed you once again
They couldn't see the stars were brighter in your eyes
Vincent, Vincent show the world
How they brought you to your knees
You just wanted them to see
The starry night inside

Vincent, Vincent did you cry
On that starry starry night
When you took your life
Vincent, Vincent what have you done
We've hardly begun
To see the starry night

Vincent, Vincent tell me how
The world has failed you once again
They couldn't see the stars were brighter in your eyes
Vincent, Vincent show the world
How they brought you to your knees
You just wanted them to see
The starry night inside
