Darlene

Don't you look so sad, she said
I'll be back with the rising sun
Keep that coffee warm
Those were the last words she said to me
But like the good son, I kept my word
Though the coffee got cold
And I long
For your love
And I long for the day
When I get to see your face
And I long
For your love
And I know you know
How much I hate to wait
Don't you live your life mad, she said
There's no room for hate in your heart
Let that burden go
And always be true to yourself, she said
Don't you listen to what they'll say
Babe, just play your song
And I long
For your love
And I long for the day
That I'll get to see your face
And I long
For your love
And I know you know
How much I hate to wait
But we'll still be here
For when you get home
We'll still be here
Mom, don't you belong
We'll still be here
For when you get home
I'll still be here
Mom, don't belong
I'll still be here
When you get home
I'll still be here
Mom, don't you belong
And I long
For your love
And I long for the day
When I get to feel your embrace
And I long
Cuz it's been so long
And I know you'd say you're proud of the man I am today
Today
And I long for your love
And I know you'd say
You're proud of how I've lived today
I'm still waiting
For you to get home
I'm still waiting
Mom, don't you belong
