Veronica Stared At The Ring On Her Hand
Veronica Shivered And Paused For A Fix
Pulled Her Windbreaker Tightly At A Fresh Cigarette
She Said Nothing Turns Out Like You Leant To Expect
So You Make What You Can Of The Moment
And The Wind's Blowing Cold On The Waterfront Tonight
And The Wind Is So Close You Can Taste It
We Got Nothing But Plenty Of Time
On Our Minds
On Our Hands
And So Many Ways We Can Waste And Waste It
Veronica Straightened And Looked At The Sky
Turned Her Back To The Moon As It Started To Rise
She Said Not Every Word In This World Is A Lie
Those Who Cannot Trust Cannot Be Trusted
And The Wind's Blowing Cold On The Waterfront
Tonight
And The Wind Is So Close You Can Taste It
We Got Nothing But Plenty Of Time
On Our Hands
And So Many Ways We Can Waste And Waste It
She Said Nothing Turns Out Like You Leant To Expect

And The Wind's Blowing Cold On The Waterfront Tonight


And The Wind's Blowing Cold On The Waterfront Tonight
Off In The Dark Someone Laughed At A Joke
Veronica's Eyes Caught The Night As She Spoke
She Said I'll Tell You One Thing
It Isn't All Smoke
You Can Raise Yourself Up You Can Lay Yourself Low
You Can Receive The Most Inconceivable Blow
Go Wherever You Are And Wherever You Go
There Is One Thing To See, There Is One Thing To Know
So Hold On To This Tight Hand, Hold On To This Close
It'll Surf You And Save You In High And High Low
That Whatever The Depth To Which You Sink Below
No Fluid Can Be Corrupted
And the wind's blowing cold on the waterfront tonight
The winter's so close you can taste it
We got nothing but plenty of time on our hands
And so many ways we can waste it
And the wind's blowing cold on the waterfront tonight
The winter's so close you can taste it
We got nothing but plenty of time on our hands
And so many ways we can waste it, waste it
