Sweet Delilah, come inside 

And won't you mend my broken bones 

The more that I get tossed aside 

The more i beg you not to go 

I'm building up a wall 

And I cant get over it 

I slip into the falls again 



I said oh, no, I know Ive been a fool 

And I said whoa, no, I fell in love with you 

And I said whoa, no, I know I've been a fool when I said 



Sweet Delilah can't deny 

That she was happy long ago 

Twenty five and full of life 

The more I begged her not to know 

White paint up on the walls 

Pretty pictures of the day 

I slipped into the falls again 



I said woah, no, I know Ive been a fool 

And I said whoa, no, I fell in love with you 

And I said whoa, no, I know I've been a fool when I said 

Oh, yeah 



And I said whoa, no, I know I've been a fool 

And I said whoa, no, 'cause I fell in love with you 

And I said whoa, no, well I know I've been a fool and I said 



Oh, no, I know I've been a fool 

And I said, Lord knows that I fell in love with you 

I said oh, no, well I know I've been a fool and I said
