Williams, Vanessa - Darlin' I Lyrics
Oooh, oooh.
Oooh, oh.
Oh, oooh, oh, oh, oooh, oooh, oooh.
I realized that now our love has past.
Feelings are far gone.
They just seem to fade away,
But yet I can hear him say we did try,
Tried our best to make it through those times.
Let's stop, don't go any further,
'Cause I need some time.
Darlin', I know you never meant to make me cry. (Me cry)
I never understood your reasons why.
And darlin', I know you never meant to make me cry. (Me cry)
I guess it's goodbye.
Oooh.
I never thought that I could hear you say
How I should go my own way.
Tell me, can't you see the changes that you put me through.
I wonder if you really knew how I tried, (We tried)
Tried my best to make it through these times.
But you said stop, don't go any further,
'Cause I need more time. Oh, baby.
And darlin', I know you never meant to make me cry. (Me cry)
I never understood your reasons why.
Oh, oh, oh, darlin', I know you never meant to make me cry. (Me cry)
Those lonely nights without you,
I guess it's goodbye. Goodbye.
Oh.....oh. (Darlin', I)
You never meant to make me cry.
I never understood your reasons why.
Oh, oh, oh, darlin', I, you never meant to make me cry.
Tell me why, tell me why. Why. Oh, oh.
(Darlin', I) Woo, hoo, yeah.
You never meant to make me cry.
Don't say goodbye.

Beautiful song from an equally beautiful woman

Beautiful black strong woman a legend they tried to break her she's the best Miss America ever. The song outstanding my favorite this and dreaming she's a legend
Multi Talents Sister.
Love this song, not only is Vanessa beautiful, but very talented.
Queen Forever
THE PENTHOUSE SCANDAL DIDN'T HURT HER ....EXCEPT GETTING THE CROWN TAKEN AWAY....BUT IT LEAD TO THIS& AND BEING A GREAT ACTRESSES!!!! ALL THOSE MS AMERICAS YOU DONT HERE NOTHING FROM THEM AFTER THE PAGEANT!!-M!! WAY TO GO VANESSA!!!!
Right when it broke I recall her saying she had no where else to go but UP.
There is a male version by a Jerome Jackson I think it is..While searching for that i found Vanessa's and I am searching no more .As usual ...she is PERFECT. Beautiful Song ...Beautiful lady!!
Such a beautiful & sad song
Great Song! Still listing 2019.
Absolutely Love Her. Always have.
I Almost died @ 3:55 when her eyes rolled back.. #MeCryyyyy...😄
Grown Folks Music Baby🤗😏💏
I always have this song on repeat! This song is my way of letting him lose on how badly he hurt me although I know it was just his ego & pride other then him giving me what I gave him w/no strings or stimulations! Queen’s & King’s please know that We are Worthy and that despite our brokenness & mending & their brokenness & non acknowledgement of it We still have to keep moving despite the misgivings because We are Love ❤️
Always loved this song
It actually sounds like a Denice Williams jam from the early 80s
Her Best Song & Vocals

Say what you want about Vanessa SHE WAS ALL THAT!! Girl You SANG THAT !!!! Love her ❤️❤️
Growing up n Chicago in the 80's as a kid when this music was the shit
WOW! Old high school first love breakups and crying in the quiet of my room; listening to this on 96.3 WHUR - Howard University Radio. Memories!
My favorite from you Vanessa,you still Bad baby.
Real singing.
Sadiq 💔❣️
This song is sooooooo beautiful!!! Her singing, the music, just precision!!! Time just stops when I listen to this & Save the Best for Last
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great song and vocals
GOD BLESS YOU NESSA
I still remember waiting for this song on Video Soul with Donnie Simpson on B.E.T.
Still listening to this song. It's very relevant
This is my song!
Diva status...werk MOMMA
I love this song. It's one of my favorites of hers. I like the double "To" tap "You never meant to-to make me cry" at 3:25 in the song. I wonder if the mistake was intentional or did anyone even notice? Has anyone else notice the mistake? The song is just plain cute.
Yea i just heard it. You Never meant "to-to" make me cry...... 😎
Its been over 30 years and this song takes me back. I still find myself thinking of her she was my true soulmate. and we were young she wanted to get married. I didn't think i could take care of her and wanted to be able to give her more so i said not now. But she said to me just like the song. Lets stop don't don't go any further because i need sometime. I never understood her reasons why. Darlin I.
So there are 58 jackasses who know very little about music, harmonies and just musical feel... that's their loss...
This is a amazingly good song from an underrated musical talent. This piece can stand toe-to-toe with virtually any ballad we've been blessed with from decades ago until present day. Outstanding...with an awesome/classy video to go along with it.... this is Vanessa Williams showing us the total package..... nuff said
I remember hearing that Song on the 1st day of Middle School and it was constantly playing in my head.
Timeless
Who’s still listening to this in 2018 !
I've ALWAYS Loved VANESSA AND HER MUSIC..
God bless u all. 💘 Vanessa
In the video, she broke her pearl necklace....I can get her another one!
Love this song, so soulful
I love this song ! Ms. Williams is the best.
she is wearling those sunglasses like no one else.
DIVA
70s & 80s where my black sistas were hands down the most dominant vocalists!
THIS WAS THE SONG I FELT FROM HER AMAZING THAT SHE CONTINUED TO SHINE THUR THE INDUSTRY DESPITE THE NEGATIVITY SHE WAS TALENT PERSONIFIED
SO UNDER-RATED, SO UNDER-STATED, SO UNFORGETTABLE!! THE IMCOMPARABLE GREAT VANESSA WILLIAMS!! I'M A FAN FOR LIFE!!
This should been a number one hit
Vanessa Williams is all the Right Stuff.
Vanessa puts me in my happy place
i love this song ...i first heard it in 89,,, stopped in my tracks and it caught my ear ...her songs are absolutely beautiful.....
So beautiful classic song
I could see Sam Smith doing a cover of this song. I love this video and song. Vanessa Williams is a goddess.
Diva 😍
Real beauty and real talent.... no auto tune here folks !!!
The 80's and 90's produced some of the best artists of our time you can feel the rhythm and soulful vocals on these artists back then now today's music is soulless they have to bring back the feelings of real musicians and real vocals. This song here represents everything I'm talking about jus pure beauty and pure soulfulness real feelings . Passionate music.
i fell in love with this song it help me through my bad relationship
I always loved her music
This woman has so much class and talent. The female performers of today could definitely learn a lesson.
what a beautiful woman with a beautiful voice sang girl I'm glad u made she stayed real and grounded crystal payne
I'm sad...humping and punching my pillow..wHy..WhY..WHY...I scream..but to no avail...I miss you Sherry Stewart...our lust will never die !!!!!
she's one beautiful woman
Beautiful lady with a Beautiful voice
Still ❤ this song
what I remember most is that she was pregnant with her second child in this video and how radiant she looked!!!
I 💖 Vanessa!
My darling I, ....... You know.
Loved this instantly in the 80s
Vanessa Williams Darlin I song and music video is a classic. She's hot. I love Vanessa Williams. I never heard Vanessa's albums.
this is the song that gave her adulthood. my favorite song from her.
Let's Stop
what year was that
beautiful...one of my favorite songs
So fierce
Love it still
Sing It Vanessa!!!
love this song
This song is so timeless.
she has always been a Queen best singer ever u go girl
I wonder does she listen to today's music, then listen to her's and say, you know " I WAS A BAD BITCH".
Perhaps one of the prettiest women in the world!
we need to go back to this music it have feeling
I seriously listen to this song at least once a day.
Beautiful woman and song!!
Beautiful song
This song is better than what I remember. She sings it very emotionally. This song is so well done that I think it would still say goodbye, even if the lyrics were different. It just captures that emotion perfectly.
Timeless, beautiful, and priceless lady, which so much talent.
Unreal music and performance by Vanessa... I love it so much that I had to google who wrote this song *Kenny Harris and Salas* are the musicians!
Thank you so much guys for taking us to heaven with your composition
my favorite:
This is indeed a winner still play this: Happy Hoidays :
