Delilah Lyrics - Singles - Marshall Crenshaw

(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 

You're out there somewhere
