Delilah / Tom Jones
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 any more |

Yesterday the sun was shining, but you're finding
The sun don't shine all the time A winter day suddenly came your way And you ran into your mind Sleeping Annaleah, weeping Annaleah 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 Sleeping Annaleah, weeping Annaleah No, you're not ready for me But when yesterday becomes a memory A memory that we uncovered in time If you still remember that cold December I reigned in your mind Sleeping Annaleah, weeping Annaleah Then you'd be ready for me Sleeping Annaleah, weeping Annaleah Sleeping Annaleah |

Promise me
You will wait for me One day soon, I'll come back And I'll stay forever more Wait for me Say, you'll wait for me One day soon, we'll wander Where we've never walked before Say to me You will wait for me When the winter's through Once more, I looked into your eyes I will fly to you Upon the wings of butterflies One day soon, I'll see you And I'll kiss away your tears Promise me You will wait for me Say we'll and we'll see every dream come true Wait for me Wait and I will come back to you One day soon |

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, But we didn't find it there so we moved on. To a small farm in Nebraska, to a gold mine in Alaska, 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. Now we've left A-las-ka because thewas no gold mine, But this time only two of us moved on. And now all we have is each other and a little memory To cling to and still you won't let me go on alone. I know you're tired of following My elusive dreams and schemes For they're only fleeting things, My elusive dreams. |

Why do I go on fooling myself When I know you love somebody else?
Only a fool breaks his own heart I pretend I don't see you walking with him on the street Only a fool breaks his own heart I have to admit even though it hurt me so I can't forget If I'm a man, I'll let you go There's no sense in holding on to an old love that's gone Only a fool, breaks his own heart I have to accept even though it hurt me so I can't forget If I'm a man, I'll let you go There's no sense in holding on to an old love that's gone Only a fool, breaks his own heart Only a fool, breaks his own heart |

I don' know why I love her like I do
All the changes you put me through Take my money, my cigarettes I haven' seen the worst of it yet I wanna know that you'll tell me I love to stay Take me to the river, drop me in the water Take me to the river, dip me in the water I don' know why you treat me so bad Think of all the things we could have had Love is an ocean that I can't forget My sweet sixteen I would never regret I wanna know that you'll tell me I love to stay Take me to the river, drop me in the water Push me in the river, dip me in the water Washing me down, washing me Hug me, squeeze me, love me, tease me Till I can't, till I can't, till I can't take no more of it I don' know why I love you like I do All the troubles you put me through Sixteen candles there on my wall And here am I the biggest fool of them all I wanna know that you'll tell me I love to stay Take me to the river and drop me in the water Dip me in the river, drop me in the water ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By AL GREEN, MABON HODGES <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |
