    I went to HighSchool with Delilah and ran track with her. She had beat so many track and field and cross country records in our state. She got a full scholarship to Columbia University in New York. I am a year younger than her so in September of 2001 when New York City was under attack, our biggest fear was Delilah's well-being and she did call and keep in touch with what was going on. She did train for the Olympics, but never made it past the trials. She is still a runner with a lot of achievements. This to say she's pretty famous in her own sphere. There is some inside baseball stories about Tom and Delilah, but I prefer to let the lore live on. It is such a beautiful song

    Great insight on the song, thank you. It shouldn’t be as weird as it seems. Had Higgenson just explained that the second half of the song was a hypothetical ending to an inspired beginning, I’m sure it would have checked out.

    Wow! That is amazing because Delilah is so powerfully bittersweet that it just goes straight to your heart. I never thought they ended up together. Long distance relationships are hard enough for anybody, but almost impossible when you are that young, which just gives it a sort of tragic sincerity. That he could make it all up and sound so real shows what a gifted song writer Tom is.

    Dude is a no-game simp, so he’s lucky she didn’t play him for half of everything and the royalties too. I mean, he was probably looking for love based off sight, and in a way I feel bad he never got to slam it; but hey, I’m sure there weren’t plenty of Delilah’s backstage, on the tour bus, and at the hotel to fill the void.

    Delilah would have married him and since he told her she inspired the song, eventually she would have divorced him, took ALL THE MONIES he made on the song and left him broke and alone, maybe, with his guitar.
    It happened to Peter Frampton. He told his girlfriend/wife The Frampton comes Alive album was "INSPIRED" by her, she took HALF the monies from that monumental album in a divorce settlement.
