Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Delilah by The Platters from German to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
I saw the light
I saw the light
That I passed by her window
That I passed through her window
I saw the flickering shadow
I saw the flickering shadow
Of love on her blind
Of love on her blind
She was my woman
She was my wife
As she decieved me
As she decided me
I watched and went out of my mind
I watched and went out of my mind
My my my Delilah
My my my Delilah
Why why why Delilah
Why why why Delilah
I could see, that girl
I could see that girl
Was no good for me
Was no good for me
But I was lost like a slave
But I was lost like a slave
That no man could free
That no man could be free
At break of day
At break of day
When that man drove away
When that man drove away
I was waiting
I was waiting
I crossed the street to her house
I crossed the street to her house
And she opened the door
And she opened the door
She stood there laughing
She stood there laughing
I felt the knife in my hand
I felt the knife in my hand
And she laughed no more
And she laughed no more
My my my Delilah
My my my Delilah
Why why why Delilah
Why why why Delilah
So before they come
So before they come
To break down the door
To break down the door
Forgive me Delilah
Forgive me Delilah
I just couldn't take any more
I just couldn't take any more
Forgive me Delilah
Forgive me Delilah
I just couldn't take any more
I just couldn't take any more
