Delilah Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I knew the moment that you walked in
You were looking for your old friend
Well here I am
It aren’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 aren’t that a shame
You shouldn't feel such pain

[Chorus]
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 going to let you down

Mm, mm, mm

[Verse 2]
So go ahead and take your shot
Drink your whiskey on the rocks
And 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 aren’t right
You're alone tonight

[Chorus]

Mm, mm, mm

[Verse 3]
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 going to let you down

Mm, mm, mm

I knew the moment that you walked in
You were looking for your old friend
Well, here I am
It aren’t no big surprise

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
