Assignment #6


Lyrics:
Oh Sweet Lorraine
I wish we could do all the good times
Over again
Oh sweet Lorraine
Life only goes around once
But never again
Oh, sweet Lorraine
I wish we could do all the good times
Over again

The good times
The good times
The good times
All over again

The good times
The good times
The good times
All over again

But the memories always linger on
Oh sweet Lorraine
No, I don't want to move on
Oh the memories always linger on
Oh Sweet Lorraine
That's why I wrote you this song

Oh Sweet Lorraine
I wish we could do all the good times
Over again
Oh sweet Lorraine
Life only goes around once
But never again
Oh, sweet Lorraine
I wish we could do all the good times
Over again

The good times
The good times
All the good times
All over again


      A 96-year-old man wrote a love letter for his wife who died in April 2013. I love this song because the lyrics isn't difficult. Even just listen to the music, I can image they love each other so much. And the old man miss his wife. He use simple words but has deep emotion.

New words:linger on  -to continue to exist for longer than expected

  1. It's a beautiful and touching story, isn't it? The elder cherished the memory of his dead wife and just used simple words to express. How romantic.
