From the recording Greetings from Riva!
Lyrics
In the Shadow of San Giorgio
In the shadow of San Giorgio
A sailboat anchored in the lake
Stuck between what was and will be
With no escape for my mistakes
In the shadow of San Giorgio
What I owe can’t be repaid
Shiver sad and small and lonely
Because of things I can’t unsay
Long long ago
Far far away
I was clever and clean
But then said things I can’t unsay
Fading light on Generoso
Once rosy gold now black and blue
I’ve grown sick of all this seeking
Dream of quiet nights with you
Long long ago
Far far away
I was clever and clean
But then said things I can’t unsay
I’ve said things I can’t unsay
In the shadow of San Giorgio
What I owe can’t be repaid
Shiver sad and small and lonely
Because of things I can’t unsay
All the things I can't unsay
