Hey There Delilah - Plain White T's

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

Hey there, Delilah, don’t you 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

Hey there, Delilah, I know times are gettin’ 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

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 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

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 makin’ history

Like I do, you’ll 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
