about

A love song to Vincent Van Gogh

lyrics

A Love I Never Knew by Cailin Green and Robert Campbell (SOCAN)

Sitting at his easel in a field of waving yellow wheat
Born upon a heady summer breeze as if it was a dream
With brush in hand he painted nature’s bloom how I could never see
Stranger things have happened, so I’m told, but not to me

He poured out his sanity with fevered strokes of red and tortured green
I asked him what his secret was that made his colours dance on simple cloth
Wild blue eyes looked at me, his furrowed brow deepened with his thought
He said ‘poetry is all around and nothing less than love will set it free’

A lover’s eyes
A master’s touch
Spoke to me with painted hue
A thousand words
Of A Love I Never Knew

Then he said to me, with certainty, that he was nothing but a simple man
And life is not worth living without searching out the truth before we die
And when he saw the stars at night, their shining light he held in his hand
He closed his eyes and whispered ‘I must always find the courage to try’

A lover’s eyes
A master’s touch
Spoke to me with painted hue
A thousand words
Of A Love I Never Knew

(Oooh’s)

Morning came and I awoke to watch the colours sadly fade away
I swear he spoke his mind to me in words I think I’ll never understand
The evening was so real to me, I saw him paint the waning light of day
He showed me life was beautiful, as only Vincent can

A lover’s eyes
A master’s touch
Spoke to me with painted hue
A thousand words
Of A Love I Never Knew
