[Verse 1]
             
When I saw the

  
 first time
             
The thunder ca

      
me crashing
             
Your new blue 

 
eyeliner
            
Caught my dist

    
raction
           
Like we were t


wo lovers

Forming from f

riction
             
Your mouth cau

      
ght my ear
            
With such perf

     
ect diction
         
There I let yo

         
u tie my hands

 back
     
And take me

[Chorus]
         
Oh Lorraine, o

            
n a Saturday m

orning
            
Oh Lorraine, w

             
ith your soft 

         
burning hands

[Verse 2]
          
We fell asleep


 in
             
The back of th

     
e warehouse
             
I woke to you 

  
needing
             
And covering m

 
y mouth
            
Like we were h


ummingbirds

Screaming at r

avens
             
You started to

     
 move me
           
From fact into

   
 fable
         
There I let yo

             
u take me unde

      
r the table

[Chorus]
         
Oh Lorraine, o

orning
            
Oh Lorraine, w

             
ith your soft
