    Lyrics
    Hey it's Delilah
    It's so lonely in the city
    you're a thousand miles away
    telling your new girl she's so pretty
    as you should
    I miss when what we had was good it was so good
    hey its Delilah I know I shouldn't be calling
    just know every time I see your posts
    my heart just keeps on falling
    you're with her
    and I miss the guy I knew you were
    please don't love her
    oh its what you do to me
    oh its what you do to me
    oh its what you do to me
    oh its what you do to me
    what you do to me
    Hey its Delilah
    getting by's been pretty hard
    because every time that I see your face
    I hear the old guitar
    you played for me
    the song's you wrote you sang to me
    just a memory
    Hey its Delilah
    sorry if I am a bother
    but I just had to call to say
    I ran into your father
    on the street
    he spoke of you he was so sweet
    like you, so sweet
    oh its what you do to me
    oh its what you do to me
    oh its what you do to me
    oh its what you do to me
    what you do to me
    a thousand miles is pretty far
    but nothing breaks my soul and heart
    like watching you forget each part of us
    my friends they all make fun of me
    cause they don't know why I cant see
    that you moved on and I wasn't in a rush
    listen I can promise you
    that I'll no longer bother you
    cause I know that you wont love me as much
    as your new crush
    hey its Delilah
    treat her good and let her know
    she's the one you'll always run to
    and she'll never be alone
    guess its my fault
    losing you was my fucking fault
    please tell me why you never called
    I'm broken and I feel so small
    I'm in withdrawal
    oh its what you do to me
    oh its what you do to me
    oh its what you do to me
    oh its what you do to me
    what you do to me

      Sure, but why is Delilah's side a breakup song? The original says he'd "walk to (her) if (he) had no other way" it's a love song from the other perspective.

    Okay but the concept of this is so heartbreaking. This couple become separated by distance, he calls and misses her, writes a song in his anguish, holding hope that they will reunite. But a decade passes and his life moves on without her. Then, the girl finally tries to call him, but he's no longer waiting by the phone. It's been years, he's moved on because he probably lost hope and thought she moved on. But she never did.
    This shit is fucking genius.

    This little heartbreak gem just swung back into my Suggestions, just like it did one late night back in April of 2020, and it still evokes the same brokenness of lost love as it did when I first viewed it. The sadness in your eyes, the grey t-shirt & plaid flannel drawstring pants and pulled back hair partially hanging in your face provided the perfect not having left your bedroom in days aesthetic this response song was conveying. It's so relatable to anyone that didn't fully realize they had something wonderful, only to let it slip through their fingers and now lamenting the outcome. You're so gifted as a songwriter & performer, you deserve all the accolades the world has bestowed upon you, and two years later I still wish you nothing but success in life wherever it takes you ...

      there all just jealous 99% of the time people hate for no reason is because there jealous. There so shallow too. They can hate on some one from 2 person view. They don’t know what she’s been through.she’s gorgeous and way too smart to care about the haters. They need to get a life.

      It might be about the fact that the original song had been about one sided love. The singer had wrote it about a real woman who didn't like him back and the dude was a bit of a stalker. The woman had been grossed out by the fact he wrote it for her.
