Hey There Delilah


Hey there Delilah
What's like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Time Square can't shines as bright as you
I swear it's true

Hey there Delilah
Don't worry about 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

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

Hey there Delilah
I'm know that times are getting hard
But just believe me girl
Someday 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

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

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

A thousand miles seem pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk tou you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
... I can promise you
That by time we get through
The world will never ever be the same 
An you're to blame

Hey there Delilah
You 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 beacuse of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This ones for you

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

Plain White T's -- Hey There Delilah
