I saw the light on that night that I passed by her windowI saw the flickering shadows of love on her blindsShe was my womanAnd as she deceived me, I watched and went out of my mindMy, my, my DelilahWhy, why, why DelilahI could see that girl was no good for meBut I was still in love with herDelilah was lost like a man that no man could freeThat break of day as that man drove away, I was waitingI crossed the street to her house and she opened the doorShe stood there lovelyI felt the knife in my hand and she loved no moreMy, my, my DelilahWhy, why, why DelilahSo before they come and break down the doorForgive me Delilah, I just couldn't take anymoreSo before they come and break down the doorForgive me Delilah, I just couldn't take anymoreSo before they come and break down the door
