Paul Simon "Darling Lorraine" lyrics

Translation to:sv

Darling Lorraine

The first time I saw herI couldn’t be sureBut the sin of impatienceSaid, “She’s just what you’re looking for”So I walked right up to herAnd with the part of me that talksI introduced myself as FrankFrom New York, New YorkShe’s so hotShe’s so coolI’m notI’m just a fool in love with darling Lorraine

All my life I’ve been a wandererNot really, I mostly lived near my parents’ homeAnyway, Lorraine and I got marriedAnd the usual marriage stuffThen one day she says to meFrom out of the blueShe says, “Frank, I’ve had enoughRomance is a heartbreakerI’m not meant to be a homemakerAnd I’m tired of being darling Lorraine”

What–you don’t love me anymore?What–you’re walking out the door?What–you don’t like the way I chew?Hey, let me tell youYou’re not the woman that I wedYou say you’re depressed but you’re notYou just like to stay in bedI don’t need you, darling LorraineDarling LorraineLorraineI long for your love

Financially speakingI guess I’m a washoutEverybody’s buy and sellAnd sell and buyAnd that’s what the whole thing’s all about

If it had not been for LorraineI’d have left here long agoI should have been a musicianI love the pianoShe’s so lightShe’s so freeI’m tight, well, that’s meBut I feel so goodWith darling Lorraine

On Christmas morning Frank awakesTo find Lorraine has made a stack of pancakesThey watch the television, husband and wifeAll afternoon, It’s a Wonderful Life

What–you don’t love me anymore?What–you’re walking out the door?What–you don’t like the way I chew?Hey, let me tell youYou’re not the woman that I wedGimme my robe, I’m going back to bedI’m sick to death of you, Lorraine

Darling LorraineLorraineHer hands like woodThe doctor was smilingBut the news wasn’t good

Darling LorrainePlease don’t leave me yetI know you’re in painPain you can’t forgetYour breathing is like an echo of our loveMaybe I’ll go down to the corner storeAnd buy us something sweetHere’s an extra blanket honeyTo wrap around your feetAll the trees were washed with April rainAnd the moon in the meadowTook darling Lorraine
