DELILAH
WRITERS BARRY MASON, LES REED
Delilah I saw the light On the night That I passed by her window I saw the flickering shadow Of love on her blind She was my woman As she decieved 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 crossed 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 Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take any more
Delilah, Delilah
Oh my, oh my, oh my - you're irresistible
You make me smile when I'm just about to cry
You bring me hope, you make me laugh - you like it
You get away with murder, so innocent
But when you throw a moody you're all claws and you bite -
That's alright
Delilah, Delilah
Oh my, oh my, oh my - you're unpredictable
You make me so very happy
When you cuddle up and go to sleep beside me
And then you make me slightly mad
When you pee all over my Chippendale Suite
Delilah, Delilah
Hey - Hey - Hey
You take over my house and home
You even try to answer my telephone
Delilah, you're the apple of my eyes
Meeow, Meeow, Meeow
Delilah - I love you
Oh you make me so very happy - you give me kisses
And I go out of my mind ooh
Meeow, Meeow, Meeow, Meeow
You're irresistible - I love you Delilah
Delilah - I love you
You make me very happy
Oooh - I love your kisses
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
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
(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
Shout shout shout Delilah
Shout shout shout at the top of your lungs
Shout shout shout Delilah
Shout shout shout until the kingdom comes
Stay away from me
Just stay away from my house
Stay away from me
Stay away or I'll sort you out
Shout shout shout Delilah
Shout shout shout 'till the kingdom comes
Treading on my dreams
Stop treading on my dreams
Out out out Delilah
Out out out stay out of my place
Out out out Delilah
Out out out or I'll rearrange your face
He'll never really be
He'll never be your lover
He'll never really be
He'll never really be your lover
So stay away from me
Just stay away from my house
Stay away from me
Just stay away or I'll sort you out
Shout shout shout Delilah
Shout shout shout 'till the kingdom comes
Treading on my dreams
Delilah
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 crossed 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 anymore
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 anymore
Forgive me Delilah I just couldn't take anymore
Sweeter than sweet
There is none to compete with Delilah
Armful of charm and a four dream alarm, that’s Delilah
Angels tip their halos
The moons straightens his tie
And weeping willows smile
As she goes by, my...
Rarer than rare,
All my life I would share
With Delilah
Heaven would be
Anywhere I could see
My Delilah
I’ll grow strong as Samson
When she whispers, "I do",
I’ll hand her the moon and declare,
"Delilah, it’s for you!"

I knew the moment that you walked in
You were looking for your old friend
Well, here I am, it ain't no big surprise
You got a broken heart to kill
Tired of knowing how it feels
When you learn you been living a lie
Oh, and ain't that a shame?
You shouldn't feel such pain
But you can't blame no one but you, Delilah
For what you find when you never ever look around
Reach out for the one right here beside you
And find the one that's never gonna let you down
So go ahead and take your shot
Drink your whiskey on the rocks
Tell me how you'll never find the one
But Lord knows it hurts me bad
Every time I see you sad
Knowing that my love goes on and on
Oh, it just ain't right
You're alone tonight
But you can't blame no one but you, Delilah
For what you find when you never ever look around
Reach out for the one right here beside you
And find the one that's never gonna let you down
You can't blame no one but you, Delilah
For what you find when you never ever look around
Reach out for the one right here beside you
And find the one that's never gonna let you down
I knew the moment that you walked in
You were looking for your old friend
Shout shout shout Delilah
Shout shout shout at the top of your lungs
Shout shout shout Delilah
Shout shout shout until the kingdom comes
Stay away from me
Just stay away from my house
Stay away from me
Stay away or I'll sort you out
Shout shout shout Delilah
Shout shout shout 'till the kingdom comes
Treading on my dreams
Stop treading on my dreams x2
Out out out Delilah
Out out out stay out of my place
Out out out Delilah
Out out out or I'll rearrange your face
He'll never really be
He'll never be your lover
He'll never really be
He'll never really be your lover
So stay away from me
Just stay away from my house
Stay away from me
Just stay away or I'll sort you out
Shout shout shout Delilah
Shout shout shout 'till the kingdom comes
Treading on my dreams
Stop treading on my dreams x2
Well you and I were meant to be
And in the end I know you'll see
That we can never be just friends
Our only love will never end Delilah
Just think about the way we were
A perfect set of his n' hers
Why does a man have to resist
A never ending happiness Delilah
I got myself out of the way
My debt to you is never paid
I was a fool to let you go
I'm sorry and I love you so Delilah
I think about you every day
And I'm sorry for the things I said
My perfect love my closest friend
Oh Delilah
Well you and I were meant to be
And in the end I know you'll see
That we can walk around like friends
Who are you kidding with that
Smug look on your face
It makes me so angry you act that way
Bat you eyes tell a few white lies and
Get your way
Going downhill on an uphill slope
And with every jab you slice the rope
You laugh out loud, but you know its
Not a joke
Deli-Delilah how long will you run
Keeping all the pain inside
Deli-Delilah There's love to fill you up
Give your life a sweet desire
To cool the fire
Well hey how about it
So what's the pain that you hide today
The closet rattles you run away
You want the others to hurt like you hurt
And with every notch upon your door
You're one step closer than before
But you're headed no where on an endless shore
Repeat Chorus
I know it's so hard to fathom
From your point of view
Girl the need in you
To walk away from the pain inside
Oh at least just try
Deli-Delilah how long will you run
Keeping all the pain inside
Deli-Delilah There's love to fill you up
Give your life a sweet desire
To fly away
there's no end to the love you can give
when you change your point of view underfoot
very good: you may be flat but you're breathing
there's no doubt he's alone in his room
probably watching porn of you from the fall
it's last call and you're the last one leaving
and you thought you could change the world
by opening your legs
it isn't very hard
try kicking them instead
and you thought you could change his mind
by changing your perfurme to the kind his mother wore
o god delilah why?
i never met a more impossible girl....
in this same bar where you slammed down your hand
and said "Amanda, i'm in love"
no you're not
you're just a sucker for the ones who use you
and it doesn't matter what i say or do
the stupid bastard's gonna have his way with you...
you're an unrescuable schizo
or else you're on the rag
â'cause if you take him back
i'm gonna lose my nerve
i never met a more impossible girl....
at four oclock he got off and
you called up i'm down at denny's on route one
you won't guess what he's done
is that a fact delililah
larry tap let you sneak in the back
and use his calling card again
for a quick hand of gin
you are impossible, delilah: the princess of denial
and after 7 years in advertising you are none the wiser
you're an unrescuable schizo
or else you're on the rag
cos if you take him back
i'm gonna lose my nerve
he's gonna beat you like a pillow
you schizos never learn
and if you take him home
you'll get what you deserve
so don't cry delilah
you're still alive delilah
you need a ride delilah? let's see how fast this thing can go.....
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
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
White dress
Cold eyed smile stretched across the mirror
She shows up, sings high
I try not to hear her
She's a virus of fresh starts
Puts you to bed with a pounding heart
An insomniac snowflake
She enters the party like a flurry from outside
With eyelashes like whirlwinds
Oh Delilah, I'm doing all that I can
Oh Delilah, not to fall for your outstretched hand
Temptation dangling from her reddened lips
My pulse quickens as I lean in for another kiss
She sends a shiver through my spine
Cuts the night into little lines
I breathe them in and dive
Now the house is an ocean of untapped vibes
You are a dangerous angel in a cool white spiderweb
How many boys have you tangled in your electric promise
And sent in a poisoned whir, spinning, twisting and falling back to earth?
White dress
Cold eyed smile stretched across the mirror
She shows up, sings high
I try not to hear her
She enters the party like a flurry from outside
Easy come, easy go, that's just how you live
Oh, take, take, take it all but you never give
Should've known you was trouble from the first kiss
Had your eyes wide open, why were they open?
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, no, no, no
Black, black, black and blue, beat me 'til I'm numb
Tell the devil I said, hey, when you get back to where you're from
Mad women, bad women, that's just what you are, yeah
You'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, yes, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for ya, baby
But you won't do the same
If my body was on fire
Ooh, you'd watch me burn down in flames
You said you loved me, you're a liar
'Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby
But darling, I'd still catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, you won't do the same
You wouldn't do the same
Ooh, you never do the same
I've been waiting for you
It's been so long
I knew just what I would do
When I heard your song
The next thing I felt was you
Holding me close
What am I gonna do?
I let myself go
Nothing left to say
Take my breath away
Whispering your name
Tie me up in chains
No one puts it down like me
Strength I carry none
Make me beg for more
Climbing up the walls
Banging down the doors
No one let you hear my scream
Like ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh
Captured effortlessly
That's the way it was
Happened so naturally
I did not know it was love
You filled my heart with a kiss
You give me freedom
You knew I could not resist
I needed someone
Nothing left to say
Take my breath away
Whispering your name
Tie me up in chains
No one puts it down like me
Strength I carry none
Make me beg for more
Climbing up the walls
Banging down the doors
No one let you hear my scream
Like ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
(Nothing left to say)
(Take my breath away)
All the things you do
(Whispering your name)
(Tie me up in chains)
(No one puts it down like me)
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh
Because who are you
To make me hmmm
And it's you ooh
And you go, and you go
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
(Nothing left to say)
(Take my breath away)
All the things you do
(Whispering your name)
(Tie me up in chains)
(No one puts it down like me)
(Hook: Delilah)
As the darkness turns to day, only you stand in the way,
No stops when you're on a run, understand who you've become.
You're the fire in the rain, only greatness will remain,
Push up, yes I raise the bar, don't be afraid of who you are,
You are, you are, who you are,
You are, you are, don't be afraid of who you are
[Verse 1: Wretch32]Growing up I liked G-banks,
But everyone was saying he was too cocky,
I noticed when you're the new champ,
There ain't nothing you can do properly,
That's why I'd rather run my race,
Before I think about how they judge my face,
I came to be the best so my training was immense,
24 hours and I won't even break a sweat,
I won't even take a rest cause to sleep when your dead's enough,
Main side of mileage on my price is still wearing off,
Had to put smiling to the side and get serious,
Wanna join me you're free to, that's the Wretch in ya,
I bet it feels like I'm directing ya,
Mr Tom-Tom going in and out your area,
It's a long run, you feel hate till you're scared of love,
I'm just trying to paint the picture, is it clear enough?
[Hook: Delilah]As the darkness turns to day, only you stand in the way,
No stops when you're on a run, understand who you've become.
You're the fire in the rain, only greatness will remain,
Push up, yes I raise the bar, don't be afraid of who you are,
[Wretch 32:]Tell me if you're with me,
I said I'm traveling at wind speed, ye-e-eah,
Tell me if you're with me, yea
Because I'm traveling at wind speed, ye-eah.
[Verse 2: Wretch 32]Wake up on a high,
and then I cross my heart and hope to fly,
With one question on my mind,
If you gotta stay grounded how the hell do ya touch the sky?
Assuming we're born to die,
But it's what you do between that deters if you're alive,
You only kill your dream when you open up your eyes,
And impossible's just a word that we recite,
It's a word that we've relied on for way too many years,
When they've put a man on the moon, planes in the air,
Probably said Houdini was a fraud before he disappeared,
Zuckerburg never had a penny to a millionaire,
Are you listening with your vision ears, ride to the willful,
Off in different years, I've engaged in a busy year,
I died trying to make my paradise, but I'm living it.
[Hook: Delilah]As the darkness turns to day, only you stand in the way,
No stops when you're on a run, understand who you've become.
You're the fire in the rain, only greatness will remain,
Push up, yes I raise the bar, don't be afraid of who you are,
[Wretch 32:]Tell me if you're with me,
I said I'm traveling at wind speed, ye-e-eah,
Tell me if you're with me, yea
Taking on the ows me,
They can do it then
Everything we add is there.
All the things you don't mean,
You won't get my big tea.
There's nothing you could do it then,
If you think that I might take you back,
Well, you don't know me.
I don't need you, go and find it
If you ever looked so real,
I don't want it, I don't need it.
In case it never taste so sorrow
Touch it never sound so sweet,
Get feeded, soon you'll be...
Don't care if I disrespect,
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
Oh oh, it's time to walk away,
No one see me get up, set
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
Oh oh, Oh oh, oh oh!
Sitting on my couch now,
Sipping on your regrets,
I don't hear a thing he says
And I don't give a damn, no.
I'm quiting these crowns down,
Nothing I can do it then,
Why you wanna make me beg?
You don't understand now!
I'm taking back all my powers
Nothing ever taste so sweet,
Get feed up to your pieces.
Don't care if I disrespect,
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
Oh oh, it's time to walk away,
No one see me get up, set
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
Oh oh, oh oh!
Oh, I'd like to kick you down,
Oh, die another day.
Baby baby, you're my sweet baby.
How I let you alone, no one home,
Remember me, you remember you?
I'm over you!
Don't care if I disrespect,
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
Oh oh, it's time to walk away,
No one see me get up, set
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
I'm fighting wars that I did not choose
I'm hosting a game when my ego is bruised
I'm pointing a gun towards my oldest friend
I'll carry a hurt to the bitter end
You won a lifetime
I've rose but it ain't mine
Chorus:
You know a lot sorrow
In my game that drown
You know a lot of sorrow
For getting all that chance
I know I left you lonely
You always leave me down
You know a lot of sorrow
And it's so, so, so, so
I'm falling apart and my everything
I'm chasing my tail as to chase your dream
In... and sins all my lovers be true
Keep ignoring the signs, darling you prevail!
Cause you won a lifetime
I've rose but it ain't mine
You saw my lifetime,
So I'm blue and...
Chorus:
You know a lot sorrow
In my game that drowns
You know a lot of sorrow
For getting all that chance
I know I left you lonely
You always leave me down
You know a lot of sorrow
And it's so, so, so, so
Do you know I love you so?
In my heart that's when you're...
I know you leave me lonely
I know you leave me lost
Still my heart goes like so and so, and so
Chorus:
You know a lot sorrow
In my game that drowns
You know a lot of sorrow
For getting all that chance
I know I left you lonely
You always leave me down
You know a lot of sorrow

I've been trapped inside the books
Only drowning in my thoughts
I've been searching for a light
Hoping it will lead me out
I've been climbing up the wall
Screaming someone help me up
Hoping you would hear like oh
Say you will lead on now
Only you can keep me safe
So I'll just stay here in your arms
Holding you goes to I'll be there as
It waits inside my heart
Laying still in your embrace
I'ma sleep when you're awake
Place a kiss upon my head
To match the smile on my face
There's not a bridge that I won't cross
To stop me missing you so much
Without you here I am numb
I won't fall to feel your touch
Only you and you alone
Can speak the words I long to hear
Holding you so close
Your whisper sounds like music to my ear
In my sleep, walk with me
We'll sing lullabies
You and I were meant to flyyy!
I'm afraid in case I wake
This dream is where I'll stay
I will never ever love another guy
Can't you see, longing for me
Only you and you alone
Can speak the words I long to hear
Holding you so close
Your whisper sounds like music to my ear
I am strong when I'm quiet
I never let you see me stall
I can hate what you say and still smile
Only play on an open court
I am the ringleader of my own circle
Fall on my knees and I won't bleed
Set me on fire and I'll fall to sleep
The pain of my scolds sets me free
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
Drown me in silence and suddenly I'm floating
I rip me apart with one look
Use my heart as a crutch for my ego
And hope that I never never fall in love
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
I must survive
This wonderful punishment called life
Use my heart and unravel it
My innocence is all gone
Torn apart and I can't handle it
My innocence is all gone
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
I must survive
This wonderful punishment called life
I am strong when I'm quiet
I never let you see me stall
I can hate what you say and still smile
Only play on an open court
I am the ringleader of my own circle
Fall on my knees and I won't bleed
Set me on fire and I'll fall to sleep
The pain of my scolds sets me free
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
Drown me in silence and suddenly I'm floating
I rip me apart with one look
Use my heart as a crutch for my ego
And hope that I never never fall in love
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
I must survive
This wonderful punishment called life
Use my heart and unravel it
My innocence is all gone
Torn apart and I can't handle it
My innocence is all gone
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
I must survive
This wonderful punishment called life
Until you ask yourself
Why you never felt this way before,
You're trying hard to wait
When you know its so long,
So much more
Because you're looking for something everyone finds
and all that keeps going 'round your mind
is things still aren't right but right now they can't be wrong.
And so you slowly pull back
your heart still in tact
excuses make up for things that you lack
Surrounded by lies 'till one day your on your own.
And so you win, so you run, but you cannot hide
You try to say what your voice denies.
Along the way mistakes that you've made,
you'll have to escape
the troubles you may face.
And so you run but you cannot hide
You try to say what your voice denies.
Next time your kind, your left to decide
which way do you ride
the answers in the gospel.
How can you fight the fear
when it breaks you down and leaves you cold.
You could be far from here
its the only place you can call home.
Because you're looking for something everyone finds
and all that keeps going 'round your mind
is things still aren't right but right now they can't be wrong.
And so you slowly pull back
your heart still in tact
excuses make up for things that you lack
Surrounded by lies 'till one day your on your own.
And so you win, so you run, but you cannot hide
You try to say what your voice denies.
Along the way mistakes that you've made,
you'll have to escape
the troubles you may face.
And so you run but you cannot hide
You try to say what your voice denies.
Next time your kind, your left to decide
which way do you ride
Life is a ride where you choose
And you decide if you wait or jump in front of the line
But whilst you wait you will learn
That hesitating can only cause wasting of time
If you remove all the brakes in your life
You will not see that people have started fading
The ones closest to you, will move along and you will be
The one left evading
Don't say you're ready to leave
You won't leave, come back into my life
Tabitha, mummy and me
We'll pretend everything is just fine
You'd always start and I, wish you would stop too
Think what you had and went, think what you had and went to worst
I know you don't wanna go
Ooh I just want you back home
Life is a strange fairytale
Someone you knew so well can one day hit you as shark
Cause you don't think that one day they'll have to go away
And when they do, you'll feel lost
How do you protect a child from missing something
They just can't hide
Is it a really worthwhile, all this
All loved things (?) seem to come at a cost
Don't say you're ready to leave
You won't leave, come back into my life
Tabitha, mummy and me
We'll pretend everything is just fine
You'd always start and I, wish you would stop too
Think what you had and went, think what you had and went to worst
I know you don't wanna go
Ooh I just want you back home
Too late, too soon, it's not fair
I want, she wants, we need you there
I know you don't want and so does she
We're all just hoping for a remedy
Don't say you're ready to leave
You won't leave, come back into my life
Tabitha, mummy and me
We'll pretend everything is just fine
You'd always start and I, wish you would stop too
Think what you had and went, think what you had and went to worst
I know you don't wanna go
Ooh I just want you back home
I know you don't wanna go
I just want you back home
Steal my eyes and I will see you through on this bitter sweet journey
Take my hand and I will lead you to the so called end
Hold me tight and I'll forgive you for making me stay
Tell me lies and then I'll leave you, cause lies are made of fear
You better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
Steal my eyes and I will see you through on this bitter sweet journey
Take my hand and I will lead you to the so called end
Hold me tight and I'll forgive you for making me stay
Tell me lies and then I'll leave you, cause lies are made of fear
You better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
You know you better be strong for me
Steal my eyes and I will see you through on this bitter sweet journey
Take my hand and I will lead you to the so called end
Hold me tight and I'll forgive you for making me stay
Tell me lies and then I'll leave you, cause lies are made of fear
You better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
You know you better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
Strong for me
Strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
You know you better be strong for me
Take my hand, hold on tight
Don't feel shame if you like
You and I, we are safe,
So high to play these games with me!
When you give me so irate
Make me wait for you
The time it takes to hate always fades too soon
Cause I could tell that you want me when...
So why did you make me wait
Keep me so irate,
Chorus:
So irate, so irate
Boy you!
You're so irate, so irate
Boy you!
I'll start fight for...
Seems like I'm half away to fall from you
You always seem to keep me so irate
Make me wait for you
The time takes to... always fades too soon!
Cause I can tell that you want me when...
So I... keep me so irate,
Chorus:
So irate, so irate
Boy you!
You're so irate, so irate
Boy you!
(Kiss me so) so irate
(Kiss me so) so irate
Boy you!
(Kiss me so) so irate
(Kiss me so) so irate
Ay, ay, ay, ay
(Kiss me so) so irate
(Kiss me so) so irate
(Boy you)
(Kiss me so) so irate
(Kiss me so) so irate
Thought it was love, memories scope the lies
That lead me far from here, here, far from here
Trying hard to silence all you say but
You stay in my ear, you stay in my ear
Because everything you didn't want
Became a part of me
All the things you asked for
I just could not see
Everything you are, everything you are
Everything you are, left a broken heartbeat
[Chorus]
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
I find myself, I find myself
Go and... go and free walk alone in the night
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
... light, call out to a stranger and I
But it was youuuhuuu, youuuhuuu
Sleeping alone I cried out, for you in my dream
No matter how hard I try to change you
You won't change with me
Because everything you didn't want
Became a part of me
All the things you asked for
I just could not see
Everything you are, everything you are
Everything you are, left a broken heartbeat
[Chorus]
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
I find myself, I find myself
Go and... go and free walk alone in the night
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
... light, call out to a stranger and I
So let me run away, run away now
I got to run away, run away
I'm gonna run away, run away
So let me run away, run away now
Watch me run away, run away now
I'm gonna run away, run away
So watch me run away, run away now
[Chorus]
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
I find myself, I find myself
Go and... go and free walk alone in the night
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
... light, call out to a stranger and I
Twenty-one
I stumbled fore they came to get you,
You locked yourself away.
Steady on
The guilty trials they'll send to test you,
I swear i cried that day.
But I'll wait for you to waken
I'll find the words to say and
I'll smile and take a picture on the day,
You turn twenty-one.
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate,
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away.
Twenty-one
The day they cut your spirit from you
Scarred my heart with pain,
Freedom on to inside a cage they kept you
And watched you die that way.
But I'll wait for you to waken
I'll find the words to say and
I'll smile and take a picture on the day,
You turn twenty-one.
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away. (x2)
Gone away (x4)
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away. (x2)

Two people, just meeting, barely touching each other
Two spirits, greeting, tryna carry each further
You are one, and I am another
We should be, one inside each other
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
Two strangers, not strangers
Only lacking the knowing
So willing, feeling
Infinite growing
While we're here, the whole world is turning
We should be, one, fulfilling the yearning
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
So you're afraid, what about me?
Dare to claim that you can't breathe
Hold my hand or I'll take yours
Don't let go cause how I feel
Is what you've made me
Though I'm hanging on a sign, I'm insecure
You got me walking on a line, still I need you more
And all the things I feel I hold 'em back from you
And all the dreams I dream I'm sure they'll hold no truth
I'm insecure
So you're afraid, what about me?
Stole my heart for all to see
Here I am, take me I'm yours
Dry my tears cause I can see
Just what I've made me
Though I'm hanging on a sign, I'm insecure
You got me walking on a line, still I need you more
And all the things I feel I hold 'em back from you
And all the dreams I dream I'm sure they'll hold no truth
I'm insecure
I realize that it's me being so cold
Trapped in a box where my heart's been for so long
I realize that it's me being insecure
I realize that it's me being so cold
Trapped in a box where my heart's been for so long
I realize that it's me being insecure
Feel I'm waiting on a sign, I'm insecure
Though I'm hanging on a sign, I'm insecure
You got me walking on a line, still I need you more
And all the things I feel I hold 'em back from you
And all the dreams I dream I'm sure they'll hold no truth
Hold your breath don't cry they're coming
*Tainted* secrets *don't die* they're coming
And if you wait for dawn to fade
You should see the dark
And as the gold defines your pain
Chorus:
I can feel your heart
Open from the start
I can feel your soul
Yearning to my call?
I can feel you
Hold my hand don't hide cos they're comin
Fallin angels fly by and they're comin
So if you wait for dawn to fade
You should see the dark
And as the gold defines your pain
Chorus:
I can feel your heart
Open from the start
I can feel your soul
Yearning to my call?
I can feel you
I can feel you're heart
You're heart
Why do you lie?
Tie me up in ribbons try to fly me like a malay kite
Thought I'd stay round
Asking you to say three words to me!
Smells like a ride...
Better start running cause its me you...
Dare to test me?
I'll teach your class from different points of view!
And in this course there's just no room for you.
Chorus:
Now I'm no more tied down by your laugh, out to drown,
You're a hater, such a hater
Was a perfect cut out by you stuck with a doubt
A hater, you're a hater
See I won't let you steal my thunder
For you I won't fall under
So sad to see you searching for a hate campaign
Your hate won't slow me down, down, down, down
Calm your bitch fit
Better learn to drive before you pull up at a quick fit,
Join the mile high, seat belt signs still on so take a seat!
Fi Fi Fo Fum Crush the tiny man with just a little slip of my tongue
So you need me
I hope you write a mix-tape RIP
For all the stupid things you said to me!
Chorus:
Now I'm no more tied down by your laugh, out to drown,
You're a hater, such a hater
Was a perfect cut out by you, stuck with a doubt
A hater, you're a hater
See I won't let you steal my thunder
For you I won't fall under
So sad to see you searching for a hate campaign
Your hate won't slow me down, down, down, down, down, down,
Follow me in the dark so sadness
Got me bad a bit to do with madness
See how bad you crave attention
So I'll pray for your redemption!
Won't let you steal my thunder
For you I won't fall under
So sad to see you searching for a hate campaign
Your hate won't...
Chorus:
Now I'm no more tied down by your laugh, out to drown,
You're a hater, such a hater
Was a perfect cut out by you, stuck with a doubt
A hater, you're a hater
See I won't let you steal my thunder
For you I won't fall under
So sad to see you searching for a hate campaign
Your hate won't slow me down, down, down, down, down, down,
I've been waitin' for you
It's been so long
I knew just what I would do
When I heard your song
The next thing I felt was you
Holding me close
What am I gonna do?
I let myself go
Nothing left to say
Take my breath away
Whispering your name
Tie me up in chains
No one puts it down like me
Strength I carry none
Make me beg for more
Climbing up the walls
Banging down the doors
No one let you hear my scream
Like ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh
Captured effortlessly
That's the way it was
Happened so naturally
I did not know it was love
You filled my heart with a kiss
You give me freedom
You knew I could not resist
I needed someone
Nothing left to say
Take my breath away
Whispering your name
Tie me up in chains
No one puts it down like me
Strength I carry none
Make me beg for more
Climbing up the walls
Banging down the doors
No one let you hear my scream
Like ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh
Because who are you
To make me hmmm
And it's you ooh
And you go, and you go...
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
Cinnababy why are you so lonely?
He holds you tight but never do you cry.
And if you hold my heart, I'll be heartbroken
Because your hands are tied.
Rent a baby see how much it loves you
Leave your dream but first you must have won
Buy a house cause then you'll be safe from me
Cause you'll be locked inside.
Cinnababy why are you so lonely?
You shine out
Cinnababy you're my one and only
I'll never let you go.
Cinnababy look how tall you've grown now
So strong that I can barely help you up
You can drive but let me steer you home now
You just enjoy the ride, enjoy the ride, enjoy the ride.
Flashing lights make it hard to see through
All the smiles and laughs
Stormy clouds may come but I'll still shield you
From the stowing rain, stowing rain, stowing rain.
Cinnababy why are you so lonely?
You shine out
Cinnababy you're my one and only
I'll never let you go.
Go-o-o-o-o x2
Cinnababy why you still so,
Cinnababy why you still so,
Cinnababy why you still so lonely?
Hold your breath don't cry theyre coming
*Tainted* secrets *don't die* theyre coming
And if you wait for dawn to fade
You should see the dark
And as the gold defines your pain
[Chorus:]
I can feel your heart
Open from the start
I can feel your soul
Yearning to my call?
I can feel you
Hold my hand dont hide cos they're comin
Fallin angels fly by and theyre comin
So if you wait for dawn to fade
You should see the dark
And as the gold defines your pain
[Chorus:]
I can feel your heart
Open from the start
I can feel your soul
Yearning to my call?
I can feel you
I can feel you're heart
You're heart
You hide me deep beneath your heart
I understand
Who you lend your love could tear you apart
But I could only recognize your face at night time
Morning shadows cloak the one thing I can't find
You and all the things you do
And all the things you say
And all the things I feel you think
The one I thought I knew
Is dying to be saved
I pray one day you rescue him
And get to see you again
I'm gonna catch you
And get to see you again
Time you put up a fight
And get to see you again
I'll drag you back to everything that we once knew
Before I let you give in
And get to see you again
You know I love you
And get to see you again
But you I do not like
And get to see you again
Don't wanna be with a man that's stuck pretending
That he's not able to win
And get to see you again
You grasp my fears of broken love
And claim them yours
You've opened doors then shared in the path
But I can only recognize your face at night time
Morning shadows cloak the one thing I can't find
You and all the things you do and all the things you say
And all the things I feel you think
The one I thought I knew
Is dying to be saved
I pray one day you rescue him
And get to see you again
I'm gonna catch you
And get to see you again
Time you put up a fight
And get to see you again
I'll drag you back to everything that we once knew
Before I let you give in
And get to see you again
You know I love you
And get to see you again
But you I do not like
And get to see you again
Don't wanna be with a man that's stuck pretending
That he's not able to win
And get to see you again
These situations pass us by
You seem to lead a double life
And I know that it is only meant to hide
Your feelings kept down deep inside
But I can see all of the things you do
Trapped behind the one I thought I knew
And get to see you again
I'm gonna catch you
And get to see you again
Time you put up a fight
And get to see you again
I'll drag you back to everything that we once knew
Before I let you give in
And get to see you again
You know I love you
And get to see you again
But you I do not like
And get to see you again
Don't wanna be with a man that's stuck pretending
That he's not able to win
Tulid mu ellu kui pike mis iial ei looju
uskusin nne mis endaga kaas kord tid
sind vaid delilah
kige eest mis mulle kinkisid tnada vin
R: kuula mind delilah
sind vaid sind delilah
kalliks pean
kuid hte vaid kindlalt ma tean
lahkusid sina ja rm
mida endaga tid
ht vrast varju tol htul su aknal ma ngin
uksele tulid ning taipasin liigne siin ma
ning siis need ked
hetkeks sind embasid elutult langesid sa
R: kuula mind delilah...
I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
I saw the flickering shadow of love on her blind
She was my woman
As she decieved 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 crossed the street to her house and she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the spoon 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
Lady Delilah - she enslaves me
I'm bound and chained by her lies
One look in her eyes and she breaks me
And I fall down like rain
As the wind sings her name
Oh, Delilah...
I was the strongest man alive
Till you came along - my Delilah
She deceived me but believe me it was alright
To touch her lips was to kiss the blades of her knives
Why do things we know are wrong feel so right?
Worth a lifetime of pain
For one night to sing her name
Oh, Delilah...
I was the strongest man alive
Till you came along - my Delilah
Well I'll never be the same
Cause that girl - yeah, she's to blame
How could I love again
Since she took my heart away.
And then someone said her name
And I tore at my flesh to dull the pain of the sound
And ripped from the chains and the walls came down
And I lay covered and bound
And I called out her name...
I was the strongest man alive
There's no end to the love you can give
When you change your point of view to underfoot very good
You may be flat but you're breathing
And there's no doubt he's at home in his room
Probably watching porn of you from the fall
It's last call and you're the last one leaving
And you thought you could change the world
By opening your legs
Well it isn't very hard
Try kicking them instead
And you thought you could change his mind
By changing your perfume to the kind his mother wore
Oh God Delilah why?
I never met a more impossible girl
In this same bar where you slammed down your hand
And said Amanda, I'm in love, no you're not
You're just a sucker for the ones who use you
And it doesn't matter what I say or do
The stupid bastard's gonna have his way with you
You're an unrescuable schizo
Or else you're on the rag
If you take him back
I'm gonna lose my nerve
I never met a more impossible girl
At four o'clock he got off and you called up
I'm down at Denny's on route one
And you won't guess what he's done
Is that a fact Delilah?
Larry tap let you in through the back
And use his calling card again
For a quick hand of gin
You are impossible, Delilah, the princess of denial
And after seven years in advertising you are none the wiser
You're an unrescuable schizo
Or else you're on the rag
'Cause if you take him back
I'm gonna lose my nerve
He's gonna beat you like a pillow
You schizos never learn
And if you take him home
You'll get what you deserve
I never met a more impossible girl
So don't cry Delilah
You're still alive Delilah
You need a ride Delilah
Let's see how fast this thing can go
Let's see how fast this thing can go
