Flogging Molly Lyrics

Album: Alive Behind the Green Door

Delilah Lyrics

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 they come to break down the door

 Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take any more

 

 [insert trumpet 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 they come 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
