Lorraine Lyrics
The sun it burns my face
But I can’t turn away
I was born in this place
And here I’m gonna stay
Don’t be sad
Don’t be blue
It’s not as bad as you think
One of these days
The thirst will go
And they’ll be plenty to drink
Lorraine don’t you fret no more
Soon they’ll be no more heat
The rains will soon start to pour
As we shelter on Charles De Gaulle Street
The light it feels so strong
So I must close my eyes
The day it seems so long
It’s hard to work out why
I can’t eat
I don’t care
Coz I’m still alive
But what I know
If I don’t drink
Then I will not survive
Lorraine don’t you fret no more
Soon they’ll be no more heat
The rains will soon start to pour
As we shelter on Charles De Gaulle Street
Cross by the River Seine
The water runs so slow
It’s so hard to explain
Soon it will stop to flow
Don’t lose heart
‘Cause you know
Soon the birds will fly
Just hold your faith
And look on up
To the hole in the sky
Baby don’t you fret no more
Soon they’ll be no more heat
The rains will soon start to pour
As we shelter on Charles De Gaulle Street
