Sweet Lorraine
Love's Radiant Promise: Marvin Gaye's Sweet Lorraine Reveals Joyful Anticipation
Lyrics
Everything is set, skies are blue,
Expressing readiness and a positive atmosphere, anticipating a significant event.
Can't believe it yet, but it's true,
Acknowledging a sense of disbelief, but confirming the truth of the situation.
I'll give you just one guess,
Creating suspense, inviting speculation about a certain question or statement.
My sweet Lorraine said "yes"
Revealing that the speaker's beloved, Lorraine, has accepted a proposal or a significant decision.
Waiting for the time, soon to be,
Anticipating a future time, possibly the wedding day, with a sense of eagerness.
When the bells will chime merrily,
Imagining the joyous sound of wedding bells in the near future.
(I'm so happy,) when it's raining I don't miss the sun,
Expressing happiness, finding joy even in unfavorable circumstances, highlighting the positivity in the relationship.
For it's in my sweeties smile,
Stating that the sweet smile of the speaker's beloved is a source of happiness, emphasizing the emotional connection.
Just think that I'm the lucky one
Feeling fortunate and privileged to be the chosen one, expressing gratitude.
Who will lend her down the aisle
Envisioning the speaker's role in escorting or accompanying Lorraine down the aisle during the wedding ceremony.
Each night I pray
Expressing a nightly ritual of praying to safeguard the relationship and prevent external threats.
That nobody steals her heart away,
Expressing concern or 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 and eagerness for the moment of marrying sweet Lorraine.
Everything is set, skies are blue,
Restating the initial conditions, maintaining a positive and optimistic tone.
Can't believe it yet, but it's true,
Reiterating the sense of disbelief but confirming the reality of the situation.
I'll give you just one guess,
Inviting speculation again, posing a question or making a statement to create suspense.
My sweet Lorraine said "yes"
Confirming once more that Lorraine has accepted the proposal or decision.
Waiting for the time, soon to be,
Repeating the anticipation of a future time, possibly the wedding day, with a sense of eagerness.
When the bells will chime merrily,
Reiterating the image of joyous wedding bells ringing in the near future.
(I'm so happy,) when it's raining I don't miss the sun,
Reaffirming happiness, emphasizing the ability to find joy even in adverse conditions, and highlighting the positive aspects of the relationship.
For it's in my sweeties smile,
Reiterating the significance of the beloved's smile as a source of happiness.
Just think that I'm the lucky one
Reaffirming the speaker's gratitude and sense of luck in being chosen.
Who will lend her down the aisle
Reiterating the role of the speaker in escorting or accompanying Lorraine down the aisle during the wedding ceremony.
Each night I pray
Repeating the nightly prayer ritual to protect the relationship from external threats.
That nobody steals her heart away,
Reaffirming concern or fear of someone else capturing Lorraine's affection.
Just can't wait until that happy day,
Reiterating the impatience and anticipation for the joyful day of marrying Lorraine.
