Sweet Lorraine
Sweet Lorraine's Promise: A Love So True
Lyrics
Everything is set, skies are blue,
Expressing that everything is ready and the atmosphere is positive.
Can't believe it yet, but it's true,
The speaker is still in disbelief, emphasizing the truth of the situation.
I'll give you just one guess,
Challenging the listener to guess something important.
My sweet Lorraine said "yes"
Announcement that "Sweet Lorraine" has agreed or consented to something.
Waiting for the time, soon to be,
Anticipating a future time, suggesting a sense of waiting or expectation.
When the bells will chime merrily,
Reference to the future event when wedding bells will ring joyfully.
(I'm so happy,) when it's raining I don't miss the sun,
Expressing happiness, indicating that even during rain, the speaker does not miss the sun, possibly metaphorical for joy found in Sweet Lorraine's presence.
For it's in my sweeties smile,
The source of happiness is identified in the smile of "Sweet Lorraine."
Just think that I'm the lucky one
The speaker feels fortunate, considering themselves the lucky one in the relationship.
Who will lend her down the aisle
Expressing anticipation of walking Sweet Lorraine down the aisle during the wedding ceremony.
Each night I pray
A nightly prayer to protect Sweet Lorraine's heart from being taken by someone else.
That nobody steals her heart away,
Fear or concern about the possibility of someone else winning Sweet Lorraine's affection.
Just can't wait until that happy day,
Expressing impatience and eagerness for the day when the speaker can marry Sweet Lorraine.
When I marry sweet Lorraine
Reiteration of the speaker's desire to marry Sweet Lorraine.
Everything is set, skies are blue,
Repetition of the initial lines, emphasizing the readiness and truth of the situation.
