I was sitting watching TV and I
Was just waiting for the News that day
Thirty channel power, two packs of cigarets
And a bottle of cool beer

Then it happened, she appeared
On the screen, right in front of me
A TV face, a TV space
A girl without a name

Then she laughed, and I decided
To call her Vera, that's a pretty name
She talked to me, I talked to her
We had a great time

A ghost in my brain, a live lived in vain
I ran out of beer
So I went to buy some more, when I came back
She was still there

I just loved her laugh, she was so above
But I tried not to let her know
I had found my love I've been living for
You know how it feels to be alone

But I thought, this would not last too long
Two hours, maybe three
For how long does a man feel good
For how long is he down

I thought it was just a dream
I thought it was just a dream
