You're my beauty queen
And you're so serene, Darleen
I used to love Irene
Now the light I've seen, Darleen

But you're just sixteen
People intervene, Darleen
And I know they mean
To come inbetween us, Darleen

I'll never go away
I'll love you every day

(Musical Interlude)

Dressed in wintergreen
Like a faerie queen, Darleen
Play your tambourine
On the silver screen, Darleen

Though you're just sixteen
With you, I will be seen, Darleen
And a new love-paean
I will sing to even Darleen

I'll take you far away
I'll guide you everyday
