Hey there Delilah...

A song I used to listen to a few months ago to calm down !!
And still it's really relaxing...
It's what this song does 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

What else can be said ?

(c) "Hey There Delilah" by the Plain White Ts

Lyrics / Paroles :

Hey There Delilah
Whats It Like In New York City?
Well I'm a thousand miles away
But Gril tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Time Square Is cant shine as bright as You
I Swear Its 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
but 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

  1. Strange how things can take complete different meanings according to the context...
    Had I listened to this song 2 months ago, it would have filled me with inner peace and hope. Today it has a bitter taste and fills me with sadness.

    "Our friends would all make fun of us
    but we'll just laugh along because we know
    That none of them have felt this way"

    The unique beauty of long-distance relationships... or the illusion of such a gift. For Higgenson himself it was a dream. He never got the girl!

    Selfishly comforting in a way...

    South African kiss my dear Frenchy!

  2. I'm sorry that this song made you feel sad.
    Any way I wish you to have a nice week-end in Cape Town.
    Go to the beach and enjoy !
    Kisses from springly, sunny, happy Frenchy in Paris
