Elvis Costello - Veronica Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • 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 would have
  • Sworn that her name was veronica
  • Well she used to have a carefree mind of her
  • Own and a delicate look in her eye
  • These days Im afraid shes not even sure if her name is veronica
  • Chorus:
  • 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
  • Veronica
  • Veronica
  • Did the days drag by? did the favours wane?
  • Did he roam down the town all the time?
  • Will you wake from your dream, with a wolf at
  • The door, reaching out for veronica
  • 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 in the sea
  • With a picture of veronica
  • On the empress of india
  • And as she closed her eyes upon the world and
  • Picked upon the bones of last weeks news
  • She spoke his name outloud again
  • Chorus
  • Veronica sits in her favourite chair and she sits
  • Very quiet and still
  • And they call her a name that they never get
  • Right and if they dont then nobody else will
  • But she used to have a carefree mind of her
  • Own, with devilish look in her eye
  • Saying you can call me anything you like, but
  • My name is veronica
  • Chorus
