DELILAH
(Les Reed - Barry Mason) 

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 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 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

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
