Lorraine
Sweet Lorraine's Journey: Unveiling the Depths of Love and Loss
Lyrics
You took it way too fast for me and now it’s in your head
You rushed things, and now the consequences are on your mind.
You didn’t take the time to really answer what I said
You didn't take the necessary time to fully understand my words.
Come on girl you know it’s just a habit, nothing more
Suggesting that certain actions are habitual but not significant.
Take it in your stride my dear, and walk right out that door
Deal with it calmly and leave the situation.
Come on sweet Lorraine don’t let them treat you insane
Encouraging Lorraine not to accept mistreatment or appear crazy to others.
You’ve waited all this time and now it’s falling right in line
Implying that things are finally falling into place after a long wait.
What a fortunate surprise I looked into your eyes
A pleasant surprise, likely referring to a positive development.
Don’t forget that when it’s done that I’m the only one
Reminding that after everything is over, the singer remains the most important.
Come on can’t you hear the sound, they're cheering all for you
Encouraging Lorraine to acknowledge the support and applause from others.
Giving every song of praise and all their children too
People are praising and supporting, extending to their children too.
Honey aren’t you beautiful or maybe something new
Complimenting Lorraine's beauty or suggesting a change in her life.
Your eyes are cherry red they’re no longer baby blue
Describing a change in Lorraine's eyes from blue to red, possibly indicating emotions.
Come on sweet Lorraine don’t let them treat you insane
Reiteration of not accepting mistreatment or societal judgment.
You’ve waited all this time and now it’s falling right in line
Repeating the idea that things are falling into place after a long wait.
What a fortunate surprise I looked into your eyes
Reaffirming the positive surprise by looking into Lorraine's eyes.
Don’t forget that when it’s done that I’m the only one
Emphasizing that the singer is the only important person after everything is done.
That was twenty years ago when she looked back at me
A flashback to an incident twenty years ago, possibly involving a breakup.
After that she popped a cap and I was history
Describing a violent event where someone (possibly Lorraine) took drastic action.
Come on sweet Lorraine don’t let them treat you insane
Reiteration of not accepting mistreatment or societal judgment.
You’ve waited all this time and now it’s falling right in line
Repeating the idea that things are falling into place after a long wait.
What a fortunate surprise I looked into your eyes
Reaffirming the positive surprise by looking into Lorraine's eyes.
Don’t forget that when it’s done that I’m the only one
Emphasizing that the singer is the only important person after everything is done.
Come on sweet Lorraine
Encouraging Lorraine once again.
Come on sweet Lorraine
Repeated encouragement for Lorraine.
