Lyrics

Hey there, Delilah

Expression of greeting to Delilah

What's it like in New York city?

Asking about Delilah's experience in New York City

I'm a thousand miles away

Highlighting the physical distance between the speaker and Delilah

But, girl, tonight you look so pretty

Complimenting Delilah's appearance for the night

Yes, you do

Affirming Delilah's beauty

Times Square can't shine as bright as you

Comparing Delilah's brightness to Times Square

I swear, it's true

Emphasizing the sincerity of the speaker


Hey there, Delilah

Repeating the greeting to Delilah

Don't you worry about the distance

Assuring Delilah not to worry about the distance

I'm right there if you get lonely

Offering emotional support for lonely moments

Give this song another listen

Encouraging Delilah to listen to the song again

Close your eyes

Suggesting Delilah close her eyes for a deeper connection

Listen to my voice, it's my disguise

Referring to the singer's voice as a disguise

I'm by your side

Declaring the singer's presence by Delilah's side


Oh, it's what you do to me

Expressing the impact Delilah has on the singer

Oh, it's what you do to me

Reiterating the profound effect of Delilah on the speaker


Hey there, Delilah

Continuing the conversation with Delilah

I know times are gettin' hard

Acknowledging the challenges in Delilah's life

But just believe me, girl

Expressing confidence that the speaker's musical talent will bring financial stability

Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar

Anticipating a future where bills are paid through music

We'll have it good

Envisioning a positive future together

We'll have the life we knew we would

Believing in the fulfillment of the life they aspire to

My word is good

Asserting the trustworthiness of the speaker's commitment


Oh, it's what you do to me

Oh, it's what you do to me

Oh, it's what you do to me

Continuing to emphasize Delilah's influence

Oh, it's what you do to me

Underscoring the transformative power of Delilah's presence


A thousand miles seems pretty far

Acknowledging the physical distance as challenging

But they've got planes and trains and cars

Listing various modes of transportation available

I'd walk to you if I had no other way

Expressing willingness to make a significant effort to be with Delilah

Our friends would all make fun of us

Expecting teasing from friends but finding it amusing

And we'd just laugh along because we'd know

Highlighting the unique and profound nature of their connection

That none of them have felt this way

Emphasizing that others don't understand the depth of their feelings

Delilah, I can promise you

Promising Delilah a unique and extraordinary future

That by the time that we get through

Assuring that their journey will lead to a significant change

The world will never ever be the same

Declaring that the world will be forever changed by their love

And you're to blame

Playfully attributing the transformation to Delilah


Oh, it's what you do to me

Repeating the impact of Delilah on the singer
