From the recording Call Me Quasi
Lyrics
Arrivederci, Venice
Say goodbye to Venice
Good night dear gondoliers
Last stroll on the Rialto
To get those final souvenirs
Say goodbye to Venice
As she’s swallowed by the sea
Beaten down by time and tide
I know the same fate waits for me
Arrivederci, Venice
Buona notte gondoliers
What was once magnificent
Now just slowly disappears
Say goodbye to Venice
This is how the story ends
With selfies by the Bridge of Sighs
I’ll never see these things again
Arrivederci, Venice
Buona notte gondoliers
What was once magnificent
Now just slowly disappears
Say goodbye to Venice
This is how the story ends
With tears atop the Campanile
I’ll never see this place again
Arrivederci, Venice
Buona notte gondoliers
We were once magnificent
Now we just slowly disappear
Arrivederci, Venice
Buona notte gondoliers
We were once magnificent
Now we just slowly disappear
We were once magnificent
Now we just slowly disappear
Now we just slowly disappear
