D.A.R.L.I.N.G. Lyrics

Where did you come from
You're no stranger
How I know
you will return
so I won't be sad
D.A.R.-L.I.N.
G - .....

In that harbor of a room
you'll find your anchor soon
in the parting of our ways
may it never happen
any way

In the highest blackened moon
there'd be more life
in the right shade of our
sighs, Death!, be gone!
D.A.R.-L.I-N.G.-.. ..

In that harbor of a room
you'll find your anchor soon
in the parting of our ways
may it never happen
anyway...

All of your charms
couldn't keep you from...

Cover art for D.A.R.L.I.N.G. lyrics by Beach House

anyone know what darling stands for? or what this song means? I am intrigued.

Maaaaayyybee this is a song about someone who is dying. There are lots of mentions of parting. Furthermore, the harbor/anchor metaphor seems to suggest a death theme, as the ocean is often a metaphor for death. The subject of the poem may be on their death bed, and as soon as they 'find their anchor' they will be off to the sea (the sea being death). In this case, D.A.R.L.I.N.G. may be the inscription on their tombstone??
