Lorraine
Yearning Echoes: Solis Brothers' Heartfelt Plea in 'Lorraine'
Lyrics
Headache from hell, don't get no sleep
Expressing extreme discomfort and exhaustion, likely from stress or a challenging situation.
Work long, hard hours just to have enough to eat
Highlighting the necessity of working long and hard hours just to meet basic needs like food.
I don't understand why I work this hard
Expressing confusion and frustration about the intensity of the hard work and its purpose.
And I'm never home
Acknowledging a lack of presence at home due to the demands of work.
But we're fallin' apart
Recognizing that the relationship is deteriorating or facing difficulties.
I know times aren't like they used to be
Reflecting on the changing times and expressing a desire for the past.
But I just wish that you were here with me
Expressing a longing for the presence of a significant other in the midst of challenges.
Don't take the kids is all I ask
Pleading to keep the family together, emphasizing the importance of not taking the kids away.
Don't leave me sittin' all alone here in your past
Feeling abandoned and isolated, asking not to be left alone in the past.
I know that I want you
Affirming a strong desire for the partner despite the challenges.
But it seems like you don't want me
Expressing a perceived lack of reciprocation in the relationship.
Don't throw these years down the drain
Urging not to let the invested years in the relationship go to waste.
Come back to me, Lorraine
Pleading for the partner, Lorraine, to come back and restore the relationship.
I don't know where you are
Expressing uncertainty about the partner's whereabouts.
Tell me why we drifted this far
Pondering the reasons for the distance that has grown between the two.
Are we bad at this?
Questioning the competence of handling the challenges in the relationship.
Tell me now
Seeking clarity on the current state of the relationship.
Are you gone for good?
Expressing fear or realization that the partner might be permanently gone.
'Cause you're breakin' my heart
Conveying emotional pain and heartbreak caused by the situation.
I know that I want you
Reiterating the strong desire for the partner despite apparent difficulties.
But it seems like you don't want me
Expressing a perceived lack of reciprocation, echoing earlier sentiments.
Don't throw these years down the drain
Repeating the plea not to let the invested time in the relationship go to waste.
Come back to me, Lorraine
Reiterating the plea for Lorraine to come back and salvage the relationship.
Lorraine, Lorraine
Repeating the name "Lorraine" for emphasis or emotional effect.
I know that I want you
Affirming the continued strong desire for the partner despite challenges.
But it seems like you don't want me
Reiterating the perceived lack of reciprocation in the relationship.
Don't throw these years down the drain Come back to me Lorraine
Repeating the plea for Lorraine to return and not let the years invested go to waste.
Lorraine, Lorraine
Repeating the name "Lorraine" for emotional emphasis.
Don't throw these years down the drain Come back to me, Lorraine
Reiterating the plea for Lorraine to come back and salvage the relationship.
Lorraine, Lorraine
Concluding with a final plea for Lorraine's return.
