Lorraine Lyrics
In the early morning, Lorraine,
I call your name
But you don’t remain
Just your sweet refrain
Taps my window pane
I’m falling like you Lorraine
Oh Lorraine
Lorraine, Lorraine, Lorraine
Lorraine, Lorraine, Lorraine
Driverless train
Swirling ’round by brain
Driving me insane
I can’t be the same
I’m falling like you Lorraine
Oh Lorraine, Lorraine, Lorraine
Lorraine’s driving fast
Her anger won’t last
It’s all so clear
I love when she’s near
I was dying of thirst
She gave till I burst
She’s here in disguise
To give you a surprise
You saved me Lorraine
You saved me again Lorraine
Lorraine, Lorraine, Lorraine
Dissolve my chains
Penetrate my pain
Baby cleanse my veins
Wash away the stains
I’m falling like you Lorraine
Oh Lorraine
Lorraine, Lorraine, Lorraine
Lorraine, Lorraine, Lorraine
You called I came
You put out the flames
Of this losing game
That would have me slain
I’m falling like you Lorraine
Lorraine, Lorraine, Lorraine
When I needed you
You were there
When my body ached
You cared
You soothed me
And eased the pain
Can’t live without you Lorraine
You’re my saviour my saint
My heartbeat was so faint
You revived me and saved me
Gave me breath and set me free
You saved me Lorraine
You saved me again Lorraine
