Marshall Crenshaw - Delilah lyrics

rate me

(M. Crenshaw, L. Preston)

Where's the light from yesterday?

When you and I were unafraid

And lost inside a world we'd made

Again today the air is hanging heavy and grey

Got a lonely feeling that won't go away

And I feel like my world's in disarray

So I say

(Hey) Delilah

I want to be beside your bed tonight

Oh Delilah

I can't shake your memory

Like a dark cloud following me

I want to drop everything and be

With my Delilah, Hey Delilah

So tell me Delilah, where are you now?

Got to get this message to you somehow

I need you more than the law should allow

Don't let too many years and tears go by

Don't give your heart to some other guy

I'm going to find you some way, that's no lie

Delilah, we've got to be together tonight

Oh Delilah - why did you do me like you've done

If I knew where you had gone

I'd drop everything and run to my Delilah,

Oh Delilah

Am I only fantasizing when I

Think that you might

Still care why don't you

Take the time to answer are you

There do you dare yes I know

You're out there somewhere
