How Sad Venice Can Be-Charles Aznavour

[00:17.00]How sad Venice can be [00:20.00]When you return alone [00:24.00]To find a memory [00:26.00]In every paving stone [00:30.00]I walk among the birds [00:34.00]That fill San Marco's Square [00:37.00]With echoes of her words [00:40.00]Around me in the air [00:45.00]How sad Venice can be [00:48.00]When the mandolins play [00:52.00]A song she sung for me [00:54.00]One unforgotten day [00:59.00]Like images of sleep [01:03.00]The gondoliers go by [01:06.00]But when I try to weep [01:09.00]I find my tears are dry [01:13.00]How sad Venice can be [01:17.00]When mist is in your eyes [01:20.00]And you can hardly see [01:23.00]As pidgeons fill the skies [01:27.00]I find the little street [01:31.00]And then the old café [01:34.00]Where we would always meet [01:37.00]To dream away the day [01:42.00]How sad Venice can be [01:45.00]Beneath the silent moon [01:48.00]That rises from the sea [01:50.00]And silvers the lagoon [01:56.00]I hear the vespers chime [01:59.00]And cross the Bridge of Sighs [02:03.00]I know that it is time [02:05.00]To bid my last goodbyes [02:09.00]There's nothing more to say [02:13.00]I pass beneath the light [02:17.00]And then I turn away [02:19.00]From Venice in the night [02:24.00]How sad Venice can be [02:27.00]It's too lonely to bear [02:31.00]When you have lost the love [02:34.00]That you discovered there.
