Jerry Lee Lewis Delilah lyrics

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 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 any more
Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take any more
