Songtexte

[Verse 1]

Is it all in that pretty little head of yours?

What goes on in that place in the dark?

Well, I used to know a girl, and I could have sworn

That her name was Veronica

[Verse 2]

Well, she use to have a carefree mind of her own

And a delicate look in her eye

These days, I'm afraid, she's not even sure

If her name is Veronica

[PreChorus]

Do you suppose that waiting hands-on-eyes

Veronica has gone to hide?

And all the time she laughs at those

Who shout her name and steal her clothes

[Chorus]

Veronica

Veronica (Veronica)

Veronica

[Verse 3]

Did the days drag by? Did the favors wane?

Did he roam down the town all the while?

Will you wake from your dream with a wolf at the door

Reaching out for Veronica?

[Verse 4]

Well, it was all of sixty-five years ago

When the world was the street where she lived

And a young man sailed on a ship on the sea

With a picture of Veronica

[Bridge]

On the 'Empress of India'

And as she closed her eyes upon the world

And picked upon the bones of last week's news

She spoke his name out loud again

[PreChorus]

Do you suppose that waiting hands-on-eyes

Veronica has gone to hide?

And all the time she laughs at those

Who shout her name and steal her clothes

[Chorus]

Veronica

Veronica (Veronica)

Veronica

[Verse 5]

Veronica sits in her favorite chair

She sits very quiet and still

And they call her a name that they never get right

And if they don't, then nobody else will

[Verse 6]

But she use to have a carefree mind of her own

With a devilish look in her eye

Saying, "You can call me anything you like

But my name is Veronica"

[PreChorus]

Do you suppose that waiting hands-on-eyes

Veronica has gone to hide?

And all the time she laughs at those

Who shout her name and steal her clothes

[Chorus]

Veronica

Veronica

Oh, oh Veronica
