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
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
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
Starry starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in 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 have 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 stranger that you've met
The ragged men in ragged 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

这首歌有许多版本，众多歌手都翻唱过，或许大多数歌唱家、音乐家都跟梵高有着类似的经历，成名之前，经过多年艰苦奋斗仍没有得到认可，默默无闻。这让他们对梵高的痛苦更感同身受，所以他们借这首歌来表达自己与梵高一样的感受。所以下面的Josh Groban（乔诗·葛洛班）在其演唱会上翻唱这首歌时说，是关于作为艺术家的我们都在某些时刻为我们的所做遭受苦难。
据说在荷兰阿姆斯特丹的凡高纪念馆前，人们总能听到这首歌，一遍一遍的放着，永远让人感动，让人怀念。
影片中的梵高真正的亮相时间并不多，或是以闪回的形式出现，或是在他人口述中的形象，但影片的表现形式却让这部电影无时无刻不处于梵高精神世界中绚烂多彩的画面之中。这也意味着《至爱梵高》并非那种理性角度的写实风格人物传记，而是充满感性地从精神领域来探索这位伟大艺术家的灵魂深处。
