Samson And Delilah

(album: Forging Ahead - 1982)

Every single day
I've waited by my phone
Since you've gone away
It's so lonely sleeping on my own
Out of luck, we've had a lovers' row
Like so many lovers had before
Hard to smile just for a little while
When I saw her coming through the door
She's like...
Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah-ah-ah
I'm on fire
Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah-ah-ah
I'm on fire

When I hear you say
(You say)
Our love is going wrong
Fills me with dismay
(Dismay)
Because we've been together for so long
Don't you know?
You didn't have to go
You thought I didn't love you anymore
But we were out of luck, we had a lovers' row
Just like a million lovers have before
Like:
Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah-ah-ah
I'm on fire
Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah-ah-ah
I'm on fire

Don't go away
Yeah, promise me you'll stay
Delilah-lilah
Yeah look into my eyes
Ya wanna hypnotize
Delilah-lilah

What's it all about?
You say I'm out of line
In and out and in and out
We had a really, really, really good time
I will change my ways
If you come back
To stay-ay

Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah-ah-ah
I'm on fire
Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah-ah-ah
I'm on fire
Don't go away
Promise me you'll stay
Delilah-lilah
Don't ever stop
Take me to the top
Delilah-lilah
Look into my eyes
I want to hypnotize
Delilah-lilah
A Delilah?
Delilah?
You can't cut my hair...
'Cause I haven't any there!
I'm still in love with you Delilah

Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah
Romeo and Juliet, Samson and Delilah
