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

You followed me to Texas, you followed me to Utah,
We didn't find it there so we moved on.
Then you went with me to A-la-bam',
Things looked good in Birmingham,
We didn't find it there so we moved on.
I know you're tired of fol-low-ing
My elusive dreams and schemes
For they're only fleeting things,
My elusive dreams.

You had my child in Memphis then I heard of work in Nashville,

Yesterday the sun was shining but you're finding the sun it

Don't shine all the time

A winter day suddenly came your way

And you ran into your mind

Sleeping Annaleah, Weeping Annaleah

Do you think you're ready for me?

Oh and yesterday is gone forever and ever, never

To be again

You looked for the sunshine, that brought warmth to your mind

But find only rain
