How Sad Venice Can Be (Que C'est Triste Venise)
Ton : CEnglish
HBbow sad Venice can be
When yFou return alone
To fGmind a memory
In every paving sFtone.
ICm walk among the birds
That fFill San Marco's Square
With eCchoes of her words
Around me in the aFir.
HBbow sad Venice can be
When the mGandolins play
A sCmong she sung for me
One unforgotten dFay.
LBbike images of sleep
TEbhe gondoliers go by
But wCmhen I try to weep
I fFind my tears are dBbry.
HBow sad Venice can be
When mG#mist is in your eyes
And you can hDbmardly see
As pigeons fill the sF#kies.
I fDbmind the little street
And tF#hen the old café
Where wDbme would always meet
To dream away the dF#ay.
HBow sad Venice can be
Be-nAeath the silent mG#oon
ThDbmat rises from the sea
And silvers the la-gF#oon.
I hBear the vespers chime
And cG#mross the Bridge of Sighs
I kDbmnow that it is time
To bF#id my last good-bByes.
TChere's nothing more to say
I pFass beneath the light
And then I tDmurn away
From VGenice in the nCight.
HCow sad Venice can be
It's tFoo lonely to bAare
When yFou have lost the love
That yGou discovered tChere.
