Veronica

[00:06.88] Is it all in that pretty little head of yours?
[00:09.93] What goes on in that place in the dark?
[00:13.02] Well, I used to know a girl and I could have sworn
[00:16.15] That her name was Veronica
[00:19.20] Well, she used to have a carefree mind of her own
[00:22.38] And a delicate look in her eye
[00:26.08] These days, I'm afraid, she's not even sure
[00:28.82] If her name is Veronica
[00:31.43] Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes
[00:34.82] Veronica has gone to hide?
[00:37.91] And all the time she laughs at those
[00:41.29] Who shout her name and steal her clothes
[00:44.32] Veronica, Veronica
[00:50.14] Veronica (Veronica)
[00:56.68] Did her days drag by, did the favors wane?
[00:59.75] Did he roam down the town all the while?
[01:02.92] Will you wake from your dream with a wolf at the door
[01:06.03] Reaching out for Veronica?
[01:09.48] Well, it was all of 65 years ago
[01:12.29] When the world was the street where she lived
[01:15.40] And a young man sailed on a ship in the sea
[01:18.54] With a picture of Veronica
[01:21.67] On the Empress of India
[01:26.56] And as she closed her eyes upon the world
[01:32.69] And picked upon the bones of last week's news
[01:38.82] She spoke his name out loud again
[01:43.08] Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes
[01:46.78] Veronica has gone to hide?
[01:49.67] And all the time she laughs at those
[01:53.03] Who shout her name and steal her clothes
[01:56.14] Veronica, Veronica
[02:01.84] Veronica (Veronica)
[02:08.57] Veronica sits in the favorite chair
[02:11.65] She sits very quiet and still
[02:14.79] And they call her a name that they never get right
[02:17.88] And if they don't, then nobody else will
[02:20.93] But she used to have a carefree mind of her own
[02:24.06] With devilish look in her eye
[02:27.10] Saying, "You can call me anything you like
[02:30.37] But my name is Veronica"
[02:32.88] Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes
[02:36.51] Veronica has gone to hide?
[02:39.38] And all the time she laughs at those
[02:42.70] Who shout her name and steal her clothes
[02:46.16] Veronica, Veronica
[02:52.15] Oh (oh-oh-oh)
[02:55.36] Veronica
[02:58.97]
