Sweet Lorraine
Sweet Lorraine: A Joyous Promise of Forever
Lyrics
Everything is set, skies are blue,
Expressing that everything is ready, and the atmosphere is positive with clear skies.
Can't believe it yet, but it's true,
Expressing disbelief, but confirming that the situation is indeed true.
I'll give you just one guess,
Challenging the listener to guess or anticipate something positive.
My sweet Lorraine said "yes"
Revealing that the speaker's beloved, Lorraine, has agreed or said "yes" to something significant.
Waiting for the time, soon to be,
Anticipating a future time that is approaching.
When the bells will chime merrily,
Referring to the joyous sound of bells that will mark a special occasion.
(I'm so happy,) when it's raining I don't miss the sun,
Expressing happiness, even during difficult times (rain), because of the speaker's sweetheart.
For it's in my sweeties smile,
Highlighting the positive impact of the smile of the speaker's sweetheart.
Just think that I'm the lucky one
Feeling fortunate and acknowledging luck in the context of a relationship.
Who will lend her down the aisle
Expressing the speaker's role in escorting or accompanying Lorraine down the aisle in marriage.
Each night I pray
Describing a nightly ritual of praying to protect the relationship from external threats.
That nobody steals her heart away,
Expressing the fear of someone else capturing Lorraine's affection.
Just can't wait until that happy day,
Impatiently looking forward to the joyful day of marrying Lorraine.
When I marry sweet Lorraine
Reiterating the anticipation of marrying the beloved, Sweet Lorraine.
Everything is set, skies are blue,
Repetition of the above themes, reinforcing the joy, anticipation, and commitment expressed in earlier lines.
Can't believe it yet, but it's true,
-I'll give you just one guess,
-My sweet Lorraine said "yes"
-Waiting for the time, soon to be,
-When the bells will chime merrily,
-(I'm so happy,) when it's raining I don't miss the sun,
-For it's in my sweeties smile,
-Just think that I'm the lucky one
-Who will lend her down the aisle
-Each night I pray
-That nobody steals her heart away,
-Just can't wait until that happy day,
