Alex Goot - Hey There Delilah Lyrics






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

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

Hey there, Delilah
I know 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 seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other 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 making history like I do
Hey there, Delilah, here's to you
This one's 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

Alex Goot Hey There Delilah Comments
  1. p.... ....

    Wrong chords...should be Bm

    p.... ....

    Its a cover.... If they used the same cords then it would be just a vocal cover... They didn't use the same cords because it means that it has a different feeling to it. And well then its a cover not just a vocal cover.

  2. E.... E....

    buenardo

  3. M.... H....

    WOOOWWWWW BEAUTIFUL

  4. L.... L....

    Beautiful voice

  5. B.... W....

    Over producing

  6. S.... ....

    The guy on piano is moving his arms and hands more than the actual amount of notes being played, confusing the hell out of me 😂

    S.... ....

    ahahha))) The secret of cutting)

  7. I.... a....

    not bad

  8. I.... a....

    not bad

  9. L.... C....

    Amazing

  10. H.... H....

    I am groot, I am goot

  11. B.... ....

    I don't say that is bad, but this song needs feeling, and here i can't hear it.

    B.... ....

    Perfect example for overproducing

    B.... ....

    because u dont have feeling

  12. H.... K....

    It sounds like I built a friend by alec benjamin

  13. O.... ....

    Just realized this was uploaded on my birthday

    yeet

  15. C.... R....

    Perfect 😱😇

  16. B.... H....

    Alex Goot sounds like Phineas from Phineas and Ferb

  20. P.... S....

    Hey great job! My band did a cover of hey there Delilah and it’s our first cover ever! Here’s the link https://youtu.be/TusFO_9LHvU

  21. G.... G....

    Guitar cords are wrong and it ruins the entire song. Beautiful voices btw.

    G.... G....

    Gurer Guncan pace was s bit off but its not that big to notice

  22. a.... a....

    Vraiment magnifique !!!
    Un duo qui marche très fort !!!
    Congratulations :)

  23. X.... 2....

    I swear their voices are meant for this song

  24. J.... M....

    This is a very nice cover of a great, lovely song. My one and only complaint is that they skip the middle part of the bridge ("Our friends will all make fun of us...") which takes away from the build-up and drama of the best part of the song. These guys sing and play with a lot of heart and sincerity, so I like it. But man, if you have a song that's so perfectly structured, don't mess with it.

  25. B.... ....

    Wow I can't tell the difference they sound the same as the real singers awesome cover! 😇😊😊😍

  26. S.... E....

    Wow. Really good! I just did a PWTs cover but this one is way better haha!!

  27. T.... ....

    damn this is good. really thanks. i really enjoyed listening to this

  28. A.... D....

    I really love this song.. such a good voice.. keep it up.. 💪👍👏

  29. J.... M....

    Really good though

  30. J.... M....

    They skipped one of the best lines “our friend will make fun of us but we’ll just laugh along because we know that none of them have felt this way”

  31. N.... F....

    You be good, and don't you miss me

  36. L.... Y....

    this song and his singing is so GOOT (good)

  37. C.... ....

    To be honest, they skip some lines from the original song.

  38. g.... ....

  70. C.... D....

    Boy bad voices.
    Come on guys, let the testicles drop into your scrotums and sing with mens voices.

    C.... D....

    Now I'm not at all defending them, but this song isn't meant to be sung in a deep bass-like tone. Don't act like it was a bad cover just because their singing voices were higher than what you preferred

    C.... D....

    I would like to hear you sing tbe song I bet it would be horrible and also this song is not meant to be feed have u heard the original, jerk

    C.... D....

    Geometry Dash Piano dude I wasn't even talking to you. What the fudge.

    C.... D....

    First of all, that was inappropriate. Second of all,do you know what a really deep voice would sound like singing this? It wouldn't have nearly as much likes or views.

    C.... D....

    Fellas, is it gay to be gay? Because that’s pretty fucking gay

  71. v.... !....

    am i the only one who saw the name sugg and was like hell yeah and then ended up loving this song

    v.... !....

    pot ato Nope. I was like yeah! It says Suggs! It must be good!

    v.... !....

    No. No.

  72. U.... G....

    Cxiel Mae S. OMG what does he do to you??? Hope he had consent. If not call the police THIS IS A SERIOUS MATTER

  77. C.... D....

    damn nicely done

  78. K.... S....

    it's a good cover but i still cant stand to hear it after how over played the original was. still too soon xD

    K.... S....

    how over played was it? I remember this being released when I was 7 and I just discovered what it was called.

    K.... S....

    This song is a masterpiece, obviously some covers will never be as good as the original. But some get close enough

  79. S.... G....

    I searched hey there Delilah cover and this one was the first one that came up, Ik exactly why:) live you guys

  80. W.... ....

    Love it <3 <3 <3

    W.... ....

    Just purchased this song on itunes <3 love it

  81. I.... T....

    dreamteam <3 ;')

  82. m.... j....

    this cover's so similar to the real one

  83. f.... g....

    my name is Delilah

    f.... g....

    Delilah Guzman hey there delilah

    f.... g....

    *cough *cough hey there Delilah go fuck yourself

  84. B.... t....

    wow this cover is recent, really good. i loved how you guys sang it.

    can.someone explain the meaning of this song like he is sweet at first then turns bitter towarfs her..? thanks!

    B.... t....

    Balto the Wolf I assume it's a long distance relation ship because he's overseas or something to send money back to her and when he gets back he finds out that delilah is cheating or something. Also how delilah has a big purpose in the Christian bible but that's all I can draw from it.

    B.... t....

    Balto the Wolf she cheated on him in a long distance relationship

    B.... t....

    She chose bigger cock basically

  85. E.... ....

    It's really amazing performance. Well done!

  86. D.... T....

    a beautiful song !!

  87. s.... F....

    I think this is much better than the original. I've always loved this song. although I don't think the whole thing is him telling her he loves her. by the end he's saying things like "you're to blame" and "listen to my voice its my disquise" and, my personal favorite, "my words are good." its sounds like by the end he's telling her that they're done, and it's all her fault. the fkrst verse is very sweet, but by the end it sounds as though he's very bitter to her. BUT HEY AMAZING COVER IGNORE MY CRAZINESS! the original is great, but like I said this is better. this is probably one of my favorite covers along with your stand by you cover with megan Nicole. loved that one. you're channel is definetly one of my favorites.

  88. T.... L....

    Why does this song has so less views?
    I sometimes find it better then the original.

  89. F.... ....

    Hair on Alex's left shoulder got me buggin

    Covers with Alex and Chad are always so mesmerizing. Thank you Alex for this 3 minutes.
