Darling Lorraine — текст песни (Paul Simon)





Words & music by paul simon



The first time I saw her

I couldnt be sure

But the sin of impatience

Said, "shes just what youre looking for"



So I walked right up to her

And with the part or me that talks

I introduced myself as frank

From new york new york



Shes so hot

Shes so cool

Im not

Im just a fool in love with darling lorraine



All my life Ive been a wanderer

Not really, I mostly lived near my parents home

Anyway lorraine and I got married

And the usual marriage stuff

Then one day she says to me



From out of the blue

Frank, Ive had enough

Romance is a heartbreaker

Im not meant to be a homemaker

And Im tired of being darling lorraine



What - you dont love me anymore?

What - youre walking out the door?

What - you dont like the way I chew?

Hey let me tell you



Youre not the woman that I wed

You say youre depressed but youre not

You just like to stay in bed

I dont need you darling lorraine



Darling lorraine

Lorraine

I long for your love



Financially speaking

I guess Im a washout

Everybodys buy and sell

And sell and buy and

And thats what the whole things all about

If it had not been for lorraine

Id have left here long ago

I should have been a musician

I love the piano

Shes so light

Shes so free

Im tight, well, thats me

But I feel so good

With darling lorraine



On christmas morning frank awakes

To find lorraine has made a stack of pancakes

They watch the television, husband and wife

All afternoon "its a wonderful life



What - you dont love me anymore?

What - youre walking out the door?

What - you dont like the way I chew?

Hey let me tell you

Youre not the woman that I wed

Gimme my robe Im going back to bed

Im sick to death of you lorraine



Darling lorraine

Lorraine

Her hands like wood

The doctor was smiling

But the news wasnt good

Darling lorraine

Please dont leave me yet

I know youre in pain

Pain you cant forget

Your breathing is like an echo of our love

Maybe Ill go down to the corner store

And buy us something sweet

Heres an extra blanket honey

To wrap around your feet



All the trees were washed with april rain

And the moon in the meadow

Took darling lorraine
