Good day to this community. It’s the oldies-themed week, and I chose to do a cover for Tom Jones’ “Delilah”, a 1968 song about a man who committed a crime of passion.
Here’s a part of the lyrics.
I saw the light on the night that I passed by her window
I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind
She was my woman
As she deceived me I watched and went out of my mind
My, my, my Delilah
Why, why, why, Delilah?
I could see, that girl was no good for me
But I was lost like a slave that no man could free
*At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting
I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more
*My, my, my Delilah
Why, why, why, Delilah?
So before they come to break down the door
Forgive me, Delilah, I just couldn't take any more…
I hope you enjoy listening.
