Wee Hughie adored and loved his girlfriend, Lorraine, to whom he was engaged to be married. Wedding plans were well underway and he was looking forward to spending the rest of his life with Lorraine.
However, a beautiful young lady, named Clearly, came to work in his glen and they found that they got on together very well. As time went by, Wee Hughie realized that he was in love with Clearly and that the love was reciprocated.
Being a gentleman, he decided that as he had promised to marry Lorraine, he would do so and steadily removed himself from his other relationship.
One day, he and Lorraine were walking along the banks of the River Tay. As they walked, Lorraine slipped and fell into the river and was swept away and drowned.
He stood on the bank for a few minutes feeling very sad before walking away singing happily.
And this is what he sang.....
"I can see Clearly now Lorraine is gone."
