Hey there Delilah, 

What's it like in New York City? 

I'm a thousand miles away

But girl tonight you look so pretty

Yes you do

Time Square can't shine as bright as you

I swear it's 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

And 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 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! 

Oh it's what you do to me! 

What you do to me.
