Thompson, Jasmine - 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
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
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 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
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

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.

  12. O.... B....

    This cover screams big lesbian vibes

    O.... B....

    Im love it so much.

    O.... B....

    A cover performed by a lass who was all of 12 at the time, and you think it "screams big lesbian vibes". Oh well....

    O.... B....

    @toff
    I knew that I was a lesbian when I was eleven.

    O.... B....

    @Books, Broadway And BTS Good for you. Something of a presumption and quite a leap of imagination though to suggest that this young lady is of the same persuasion (I can tell you with considerable confidence that she isn`t) simply on the basis of her then 12 year old self in 2014, as a female, covering a popular song which has a female as the subject of its lyrics. Your comment may possibly reflect some wishful thinking but it doesn`t reflect a lot of consideration and logic..

    O.... B....

    @toff ok that makes sense. I was just expressing that as a gay person i enjoy having representation in covers and songs although this person may or may not be straight
