I saw light on the night that I passed by her window I saw the flickering shadows of love her blind
She was my woman As she deceived me I watched and went out of my mind
My, my, my, Delilah Why, why, Delilah I could see that girl was no good 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 door
She stood there laughing I felt the knife my hand and she laughed no more -*
My, my, Delilah Why, why, why Delilah So before they come to break down the door Forgive me Delilah I couldn't take any more
(insert trumpet solo here)
She stood there laughing I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no -*
My, my, my, Delilah Why, why, why, Delilah So before they come to break down the door Forgive me Delilah just couldn't take any more Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take any more
