Is it all in that pretty little head of yours
你美丽的小脑袋里是否装满幻想
What goes on in that place in the dark
那黑暗角落中究竟藏着什么
Well I used to know a girl and I could have sworn
我曾认识一个女孩 我敢发誓
That her name was Veronica
她的名字叫维罗妮卡
Well she used to have a carefree mind of her own
她曾拥有自由不羁的灵魂
And a delicate look in her eye
眼中闪烁着灵动的光芒
These days I'm afraid she's not even sure
如今恐怕她连自己都不确定
If her name is Veronica
是否还叫维罗妮卡
Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes
你可曾想过 她双手掩面等待
Veronica has gone to hide
维罗妮卡已躲藏起来
And all the time she laughs at those who shout
始终嘲笑着那些呼喊她名字
Her name and steal her clothes
又偷走她衣裳的人
Veronica
维罗妮卡
Veronica
维罗妮卡
Did the days drag by did the favors wane
岁月是否漫长难熬 恩惠是否消逝
Did he roam down the town all the while
他是否整日在小镇游荡
Will you wake from your dream with a wolf at the door
你是否会从梦中惊醒 门外饿狼正徘徊
Reaching out for Veronica
伸手想要抓住维罗妮卡
Well it was all of sixty-five years ago
那已是六十五年前的往事
When the world was the street where she lived
当时她的整个世界就是那条街
And a young man sailed on a ship in the sea
有个年轻人乘船远航
With a picture of Veronica
怀里揣着维罗妮卡的相片
On the Empress of India
在印度皇后号上
And as she closed her eyes upon the world
当她阖上双眼告别尘世
And picked upon the bones of last week's news
在旧报纸堆里翻找着残羹冷炙
She spoke his name out loud again
她又轻声唤出那个名字
Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes
你可曾想过 她双手掩面等待
Veronica has gone to hide
维罗妮卡已躲藏起来
And all the time she laughs at those who shout
始终嘲笑着那些呼喊她名字
Her name and steal her clothes
又偷走她衣裳的人
Veronica
维罗妮卡
Veronica
维罗妮卡
Veronica sits in her favorite chair
维罗妮卡静坐她最爱的椅中
And she sits very quiet and still
沉默如凝固的时光
And they call her a name that they never get right
人们唤着永远叫不对的名字
And if they don't then nobody else will
若他们不喊 便再无人记得
But she used to have a carefree mind of her own
她曾拥有恣意飞扬的年少
With devilish look in her eye
眼里跳动着狡黠的光
Saying you can call me anything you like
说着"随你们怎么称呼都好"
But my name is Veronica
"但我的名字是维罗妮卡"
Do you suppose that waiting hands on eyes
你可曾想过 她双手掩面等待
Veronica has gone to hide
维罗妮卡已躲藏起来
And all the time she laughs at those who shout
始终嘲笑着那些呼喊她名字
Her name and steal her clothes
又偷走她衣裳的人
Veronica
维罗妮卡
Veronica
维罗妮卡
Oh Veronica
哦 维罗妮卡
