Intro
Verse
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
Verse
Well she used 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
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 - Veronica
Instrumental
Verse
Did the days drag by? Did the favour wane?
Did he roam down the town all the time?
Will you wake from a dream, with the wolf at the door
Reaching out for Veronica?
Verse
Well it was all 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
Middle 8
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
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 - Veronica
Instrumental
Verse
Veronica sits in her favourite chair
And she sits very quiet and still
And they call her name that they never get right
And if they don't then nobody else will
Verse
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
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 - Veronica
Instrumental
Outro
Veronica
