Elliot Kendall Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, Donna, Oh, Donna
I had a girl
Donna was her name
Since she left me
I've never been the same
'Cause I love my girl
Where can you be?
Now that you're gone
I'm left all alone
All by myself
To wander and roam
'Cause I love my girl
Donna, where can you be?
Where can you be?
Well, darlin', now that you're gone
I don't know what I'll do
All time and all my love for you
I had a girl
Donna was her name
Since she left me
I've never been the same
'Cause I love my girl
Donna, where can you be?
Where can you be?
Oh, Donna, Oh, Donna
Oh, Donna, Oh, Donna
Oh, Donna!
Elliot Kendall's song Donna is a touching and honest depiction of love and heartbreak. The lyrics revolve around the singer's love for a girl named Donna and how he feels lost and incomplete without her. The repeated phrase "Oh, Donna" serves as a haunting reminder of the singer's longing for his lost love. The song is a plea for Donna to come back to him, as he cannot navigate life without her.
The first stanza of the song sets the stage with the introduction of Donna, who the singer is clearly in love with. However, the second stanza reveals that Donna has left him, leaving the singer to wander aimlessly in search of her. The repeated line "Where can you be?" is a strikingly emotional moment as the singer is left alone and without direction.
As the song progresses, the singer's desperation and heartache become more palpable. The middle stanza highlights his struggle to move on, with lines like "All time and all my love for you." It is clear that the singer is struggling to accept the loss of his love and cannot envision a future without her.
The final chorus ends with a simple yet poignant repetition of the phrase "Oh Donna." The simplicity of the song's structure, combined with its poignant lyrics, creates a powerful and haunting reflection on the nature of love and heartbreak.

Turn to Jesus from your sins OK groomers. JESUS WARNED IF YOU CAUSE A CHILD WHO BELIEVES TO STUMBLE.
The Lord will.l condemn all who corrupt the innocence of a child.
THE LORD TEACHES TO TRAIN YOUR CHILDREN IN THE WAYS OF THE LORD.
The philosophy of the schoolroom in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next.” - Abraham Lincoln
JEsus set captives free from sexual perverted liars agenda.
Turn to Jesus love from satan lust.
