Songwriters: REED, LES / SHAPER, HAL N

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 decieved 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 [bad word] to break down the door
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take any more
(insert [bad word] 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 [bad word] 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
