Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But, girl, tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true
[Verse 2]
Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry 'bout the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice, it's my disguise
I'm by your side
[Verse 3]
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
What you do to me
[Verse 4]
Hey there Delilah
I know times are gettin' hard
But just believe me, girl
Some day, I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good
[Verse 5]
Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all
[Verse 6]
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
[Verse 7]
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes, and trains, and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
And we'll just laugh along
Because we'd know that none of them have felt this way
Delilah, I can promise you
That by the time that we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame
[Verse 8]
Hey there Delilah
You'll be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah, here's to you
This one's for you
[Verse 9]
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
What you do to me
[Verse 10]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh, whoa
Oh-oh
Whoa
Oh, whoa
Oh, oh
Whoa
