Maureen McGovern - Darlene lyrics

Your rating:


She comes home from work every night,

Sits in her apartment hoping the phone would ring,

Ends up staying home to watch TV,

Makes excuses for herself she can't begin to believe,

Someone's bound to call tomorrow night, just wait and see



Whatcha gonna do, Darlene?

When're you gonna learn you simply can't give your heart away?

Face it now, you're not 16

You've been hurt inside enough to know what the price of love can be



And things can get hard to explain

Like when your little daughter asks where her daddy's gone

And you can't bear to put her on

She's all that you have got, so do the best you can

When she's old enough, you hope that she will understand



Whatcha gonna do, Darlene?

Why is it love just seems to pass you by?

Finally, I hope you'll see

They've been taking you for granted and you just can't let that be



Putting trust into

Guys who don't deserve the time of day

If you only knew

He'll take what he can get from you

Then, like the rest, he'll leave you too

It's the same old story



And maybe you'll find someone new

Who'll move in your apartment and can't stand to sleep alone

And you've convinced yourself he's all your own

When he stayed in one place long enough, then it's time to go

I'd hate to be the one to say I told you so



Whatcha gonna do, Darlene?

When're you gonna learn you simply can't give your heart away?

Face it now, you're not 16

You've been hurt inside enough to know what the price of love can be



Whatcha gonna do, Darlene?

(Whatcha gonna do, Darlene?)

Whatcha gonna do, Darlene?

(Whatcha gonna do, Darlene?)

(repeat and fade out)
