Lyrics

[00:06.10] I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
[00:18.19] I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind
[00:21.32] She was my woman
[00:30.48] As she deceived me, I watched and went out of my mind
[00:36.76] My, my, my, Delilah
[00:43.72] Why, why, why, Delilah
[00:52.11] I could see, that girl was no good for me
[01:03.62] But I was lost like a slave that no man could free
[01:10.99] At break of day when that man drove away, I was waiting
[01:16.47] I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door
[01:23.75] She stood there laughing
[01:31.34] I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more
[01:38.91] My, my, my, Delilah
[01:48.35] Why, why, why, Delilah
[01:50.30] So before they come to break down the door
[02:03.48] Forgive me Delilah, I just couldn't take anymore
[02:09.76] She stood there laughing
[02:34.58] I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more
[02:40.84] My, my, my, Delilah
[02:46.08] Why, why, why, Delilah
[02:51.52] So before they come to break down the door
[03:03.85] Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take anymore
[03:09.56] Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take anymore
[03:20.51]
