The Return Of Sweet Lorraine Lyrics

Country Joe & The Fish The Return Of Sweet Lorraine

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.
