"Verona" was the Estonian entry in Eurovision Song Contest 2017 in Kiev, performed by duo Koit Toome & Laura.
This was their second appearance as he represented the country at the 1998 Contest in Birmingham, finishing in 12th place, while she represented the country in the 2005 Contest, also in Kiev, as part of the group Suntribe, failing to qualify for the final.
Although seen as a favorite to win, it suffered from a technical glitch during its second semi-final performance and ultimately failed to qualify for the final.
Lyrics[]
Sleeping all alone
You wake up with a bottle in your hands
No sound of serenade
‘Cause we both know we lost our game
I was always high on loving you
Before the romance turned to drama
Like Romeo and Juliet once before
We are lost in Verona
Learning through the scars
Will make you stronger, time is the proof
I’m not a loner kind
I know I just can’t get over you
I was always trying to tell the truth
Before the romance turned to drama
I hope the best in me was always you
Before we lost our Verona
(We are lost) Lost in the crowd of the street
(We are lost) Like two sailing boats in the sea
(We are lost) ‘Cause sometimes we’re building and burning down love
We have lost our Verona
Ah… we lost and we found our Verona
Ah… we are lost in Verona
Reckless type of love, reckless type of love
We never said I’m sorry, we never said enough
This western type of woman, western type of man
Disappeared in Verona
Ah… we lost and we found our Verona
Ah… we are lost in Verona
(We are lost) Lost in the crowd of the street
(We are lost) Like two sailing boats in the sea
(We are lost) ‘Cause sometimes we’re building and burning down love
We have lost our Verona
Ah… ah… we lost and we found our Verona
Ah… ah… we are lost in Verona
Ah… we are lost in Verona
