The Return Of Sweet Lorraine

(album: C. J. Fish - 1970)

Sweet lady, won't you come beside me and make me feel all right?
Sweet lady, won't you come beside me and make me feel all right?
The hours without you seem too long to bear
Gray witch goddess, I suspect that you don't care
But it's simply a matter of wanting you here by me
Here by me.

And off into the silent night she creeps from her bed
Beaming, gleaming crystal screams surrounding her in red
If she can't have your heart then she'll have your soul instead
Remember her name, it's sweet Lorraine
Now, nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah.

A million years, a trillion stars away from me
Fluorescent spheres and diamond studded galaxies
Swirling, spinning, soft and swift
At last our love has come to this
The silver circle returned to energy
Returned to energy.

I've closed the curtains, now we're all alone all by ourselves
I can see your eyes aglow, I can feel all the things you've felt
I watch you slowly turning, screaming into someone else
And I remember your name, it's sweet Lorraine.
