Veronica Falls Lyrics

Heads rested on shoulders
I wish I'd been a little bit bolder
Sharing the bed upside-down
Without the courage to turn around

We were waiting for something to happen
(Waiting for something to happen)
Just like Veronica Falls
We were waitin' for something to happen
(Waiting for something to happen)
But nothing happened at all
No lie, big mistake
The chance I didn't take
That regret I didn't make

Tellin' myself
"I told you so"
I had just one chance
And I let it go

We were waitin' for something to happen
(Waiting for something to happen)
Just like Veronica Falls
But it was more like Del Amitri
And nothing happened, nothing happened at all
No lie, big mistake
The chance I didn't take
That regret I did not make
Now it's too late

This is a song about longing
Wishing I'd done wrong and
Missed opportunities to be bad
It's a song about not cheatin' on your girlfriend when you wish that you had
