Goodbye Lorraine Lyrics

Goodbye Lorraine lyrics

I met her in the mountains

Though I lived down by the sea

And now it seems these mountains

Are just way too high for me



Goodbye Lorraine

Goodbye Lorraine

Let me explain



She said, "It will be witches

Then there must be nakedness"

I said, "You have no heart until

That aching fills your chest"



Goodbye Lorraine

Goodbye Lorraine

Let me explain



Just why I'm leaving

I don't know what for

But I can't explain it anymore



We help hands in the temple

But we had no wedding day

Now she sends me perfumed letters

And I throw them all away



Goodbye Lorraine

Goodbye Lorraine

Let me explain



A friend showed me a picture

From the 1970's

Now I'm wondering where you are tonight

And I'm singing woe is me



Goodbye Lorraine

Goodbye Lorraine

Let me explain



Just why I'm leaving

I don't know what for

Well, I can't explain it anymore
