Lyrics
Lorraine you're strange i cant fit you onto the shelf
and i cant understand how you could cheat on me all by yourself but somehow you do it your lying eyes give you away
but until i can catch you i guess i'll have nothing to say
lorraine, what can i say?
i found the flowers stashed away deep in our room
i found the chocolates and all of the love letters too
can you imagine the pain i felt playing the fool
when i read the letters and found they were all sent by you?
lorraine, what can i say
i just cant compete with that kind of play
well i left work early and then i followed you home
you parked your bicycle there on the patio stone
i looked in the window one minute after i heard you moan
you were smoking a cigarette laying in bed alone
lorraine, what can i say
lorraine i need you please let the mirror go
would you love me more if i wore all of your clothes
or is it something inside that i cant replace
i wish i could tell you to leave you but that's just too strange
lorraine, what can i say
i just cant compete with that kind of play
