Veronica (维罗妮卡) - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)[00:00:00]

Written by：Grant Fitch/Mark Hennessy[00:00:00]

Is it all in that pretty little head of yours[00:00:06]

What goes on in that place in the dark[00:00:10]

Well I used to know a girl and I could have sworn[00:00:13]

That her name was Veronica[00:00:16]

Well she used to have a carefree mind of her own[00:00:19]

And a delicate look in her eye[00:00:22]

These days I'm afraid she's not even sure[00:00:26]

If her name is Veronica[00:00:28]

Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes[00:00:31]

Veronica has gone to hide[00:00:34]

And all the time she laughs at those who shout[00:00:37]

Her name and steal her clothes[00:00:42]

Veronica[00:00:44]

Veronica[00:00:47]

Did the days drag by did the favors wane[00:00:56]

Did he roam down the town all the while[00:00:59]

Will you wake from your dream with a wolf at the door[00:01:03]

Reaching out for Veronica[00:01:06]

Well it was all of sixty-five years ago[00:01:09]

When the world was the street where she lived[00:01:12]

And a young man sailed on a ship in the sea[00:01:15]

With a picture of Veronica[00:01:18]

On the Empress of India[00:01:21]

And as she closed her eyes upon the world[00:01:26]

And picked upon the bones of last week's news[00:01:32]

She spoke his name out loud again[00:01:38]

Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes[00:01:43]

Veronica has gone to hide[00:01:46]

And all the time she laughs at those who shout[00:01:49]

Her name and steal her clothes[00:01:53]

Veronica[00:01:56]

Veronica[00:01:59]

Veronica sits in her favorite chair[00:02:08]

And she sits very quiet and still[00:02:11]

And they call her a name that they never get right[00:02:14]

And if they don't then nobody else will[00:02:17]

But she used to have a carefree mind of her own[00:02:20]

With devilish look in her eye[00:02:23]

Saying you can call me anything you like[00:02:26]

But my name is Veronica[00:02:30]

Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes[00:02:32]

Veronica has gone to hide[00:02:36]

And all the time she laughs at those who shout[00:02:39]

Her name and steal her clothes[00:02:43]

Veronica[00:02:46]

Veronica[00:02:49]

Oh Veronica[00:02:52]
