Sweet Lorraine
Eternal Love's Affirmation: Sweet Lorraine's Yes
Lyrics
Everything is set, skies are blue,
Expressing a positive atmosphere and readiness; everything is prepared, and the sky is clear.
Can't believe it yet, but it's true,
Expressing disbelief in a positive way; the speaker is acknowledging the truth of a situation.
I'll give you just one guess,
Inviting speculation or anticipation about a particular question or situation.
My sweet Lorraine said "yes"
Revealing that the person named Lorraine has accepted a proposal or a significant question (likely marriage).
Waiting for the time, soon to be,
Referring to a future time that is eagerly awaited.
When the bells will chime merrily,
Anticipating joyful sounds, possibly associated with a wedding ceremony.
(I'm so happy,) when it's raining I don't miss the sun,
Expressing happiness even during challenging times; finding joy in the presence of a loved one.
For it's in my sweeties smile,
Highlighting the source of joy, which is 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 romantic relationship.
Who will lend her down the aisle
Expressing anticipation of escorting the sweetheart down the aisle during a wedding ceremony.
Each night I pray
Indicating a nightly ritual of prayer, possibly to protect the relationship.
That nobody steals her heart away,
Expressing a fear or concern that someone might try to win the sweetheart's affection.
Just can't wait until that happy day,
Impatiently looking forward to a future day of happiness, presumably the wedding day.
