I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
I saw the flickering shadows of love on the blinds
She was my woman
As she betrayed me I watched, went out of my mind
My, my, my Delilah
Why, why, why, Delilah
I could see that girl was no good to me
Just like a slave I was lost and no man could free
But at break of day when
that man drove away, I was waiting
I crossed the street to
her house, she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand, 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 anymore
She stood there,
laughing
I felt the knife in my hand, 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 anymore
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 anymore
Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take anymore
I saw the flickering shadows of love on the blinds
She was my woman
As she betrayed me I watched, went out of my mind
My, my, my Delilah
Why, why, why, Delilah
I could see that girl was no good to me
Just like a slave I was lost and no man could free
But at break of day when
that man drove away, I was waiting
I crossed the street to
her house, she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand, 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 anymore
She stood there,
laughing
I felt the knife in my hand, 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 anymore
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 anymore
Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take anymore
