Overview

Daniel Brummel recounts the song being about, "the classic romantic ideal is longing for a girl you don't have, who won't give you the time of day, and still believing it's possible."

"Lorraine" contains several references to the plot of the 1985 film Back to the Future.

Lyrics

There's just one thing I couldn't find
One girl that couldn't be mine
She's in love with Calvin Klein

I know she could have any one of these boys
Here I am playing with my baby toys
I'm rocking out but I'm just making noise

16 years and what do we get?
Another ex and deeper in debt
I've done all of my time
And placed all of my bets
People say that LA is a dive
But living ain't that hard if you know you're alive
We still party like it's 1955

Lorraine, Lorraine
My destiny
This song is over without you
So I'm singin' this refrain to you

There's just one thing I couldn't find
One girl that couldn't be mine
She's in love with Calvin Klein

I knew she could have any one of these boys
Here I am playing with my baby toys
I'm rocking out but I'm just making noise
Lorraine, Lorraine
My destiny
This song is over without you
So I'm singin' this refrain to you

Lorraine, Lorraine
My destiny
This song is over without you
So I'm singin' this refrain to you

Till the till the night I realized
I still see the world through candy-coated eyes

Lorraine, Lorraine
My destiny
This song is over without you
So I'm singin' this refrain to you

Lorraine, Lorraine
My destiny
This song is over without you
So I'm singin' this refrain to you

Until the night I realized
I still see the world
Through candy-coated eyes
