  Hey there De

lilah,
          
What’s it like

 in New York C

ity? 
      
I’m a thousand

 miles away, 
           
But girl tonig

ht you look so

 pretty, 
           
Yes you do, 
             
  Time Square 

             
can’t shine as

           
 bright as you

, 
             
I swear it’s t

rue. 

  Hey there De

lilah, 
          
Don’t you worr

y about the di

stance, 
          
I’m right ther

e if you get l

onely, 
          
Give this song

 another liste

n, 
            
Close your eye

  Listen to my

             
 voice it’s my

    
 disguise, 
            
I’m by your si

de. 

[Chorus]
             
Oh it’s what y

         
ou do to me, 
             
Oh it’s what y

         
ou do to me, 
             
Oh it’s what y

         
ou do to me, 
             
Oh it’s what y

What you do to

 
 me.

[Verse]

  Hey there De

lilah,
       
I know times a

re getting har

d, 
           
But just belie

ve me girl som

e day, 
             
I'll pay the b


ills with this

 guitar, 
              
We'll have it

  We'll have t

             
he life we kne

My word is goo

d.


  Hey there De

lilah, 
         
I’ve got so mu

ch left to say

, 
         
If every simpl

e song I wrote

 to you, 
      
Would take you

r breath away,

 
             
I’d write it a

    
ll, 
             
  Even more in

             
 love with me 

      
you’d fall, 
             
We’d have it a

ll.

[Chorus]
             
Oh it’s what y

Oh it’s what y

         
ou do to me, 
             
Oh it’s what y

         
ou do to me, 
             
Oh it’s what y

         
ou do to me, 

[Bridge]
  
A thousand mil

es seems prett

y far, 
    
But they’ve go

t planes and t

rains and cars

, 
             
I’d walk to yo

              
u if I had no 

      
other way, 
    
Our friends wo

uld all make f

un of us, 
    
And we'll just

 laugh along b

ecause, 
             
We know that n

              
one of them ha

             
ve felt this w


ay, 
  
Delilah I can 

promise you, 
     
That by the ti

me that we get

 through, 
    
The world will

 never ever be

 the same,
              
And you’re to 


blame.

[Verse]
             
  Hey there De

Two more years

 and you’ll be

 done with sch

ool, 
    
And I'll be ma

king history, 
          
Like I do, 
             
  You’ll know

se of you, 
             
  We can do wh

  Hey there De
