I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
|
I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind
|
She was my woman
|
As she deceived me I watched and went out of my mind
|
My, my, my, Delilah
|
Why, why, why, Delilah
|
I could see that girl was no good for me
|
But I was lost like a slave that no man could free
|
At break of day when that man drove away, I was waiting
|
I cross the street to her house and she opened the door
|
She stood there laughing
|
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more
|
My, my, my Delilah
|
Why, why, why Delilah
|
So before they come to break down the door
|
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take any more
|
|
[insert trumpet solo here]
|
|
She stood there laughing
|
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more
|
My, my, my, Delilah
|
Why, why, why, Delilah
|
So before they come to break down the door
|
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take any more
|
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take any more
|
