I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blinds
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 one could free
At break of day, when the man drove away
I was waiting
I crossed 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
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
