    I interpreted it as a guys wife died and he played this at her funeral. He changes the notes of the original version that he wrote for her when they were young because he feels it’s inappropriate to play the original version.

    pov: the singer is delusional. deliliah was a highschool crush so out of hand they've stalked her to her out of state college. they never knew delilah and delilah never knew of their existence but they still send her this message. and in two years,
    they'll finally see her again
    and the world will never, ever, be the same

    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.
    Times 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
    Ohhhhh it's what you do to meeee
    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 all your breath away,
    I'd write it all.
    Even more in love with me you'd fall.
    We'll 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
    Ohhhhh it's what you do to meee
    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, but we'd just laugh along because we know that none of them have felt this way.
    Delilah I can promise you, that by the time that we get through the world will never ever be the same.
    And your 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 ones 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
    Ohhhhhh it's what you do to meee
    What you do to me
    Woah ohhhh woah ohhh ohh oh oh woahhhhhh

    I think its a story about Delilah coming out to her parents and her parents are really homophobic, so after she comes out, her parents imprison her in their home and make her read the bible, pray, etc.
    Whilst she is locked up, the girl she fell for is working on her singing and music so she can earn enough to help Delilah bc Delilah would have nowhere to go if her parents disowned her. (Basically saving up so they can run away together)
    SInce her parents took Delilah's phone and any forms of social media, her lover ends her letters every day about what she's doing.
    Then she paraphrases thee letters into this song which went viral and...yuh... Ik I'm a little late but this is my spin on the song.

    i mean this version obviously sounds like a stalker singing this to “delilah”, but i personally see it as the girl singing this is “delilah’s” inner voice trying to calm her down as she descends into madness/insanity

    Hey I've got a fun little story for you! Heh I'm just starting out for writing, so if you have any tips just tell me.
    Lily and Delilah sat in the car, watching the lights fly past like neon stars. "Oh you look beautiful tonight. Times square couldn't hold a candle to your eyes." Lily said, her own eyes sparkling. "Do I? I just want to look nice for the party." Delilah blushed, bouncing her silver curls. After a few more minutes, the driver pulled over. "Why are we stopping? Lily asked. "I need to pick my friend up. She's going to this party in New York, and I owe her a favor. Hope you don't mind." The driver explained. A girl about her age wearing a red dress got into the front seat of the car. She was very attractive, and most definitely Delilah's type. She wore lipstick that was red as blood, and eyes black as a starless night. "No, me and my *girlfriend* don't mind." Lily said, clutching Delilah closer. "What's your name?" Delilah asked. "Rose." Said the girl in the red dress. "So Rose," Lily spit the name out like rotten fruit. "You said you were going to a party?" Lily asked skeptically. "Yes, near central park." Delilah whipped her head around. "I think we're going to the same party! That's so cool!" She exclaimed. "Yeah, you will definitely make the party worth attending." Rose said slyly. After a few minutes of silence, we made it to the rooftop suaree. Lily and Delilah went for drinks, while Rose slipped into the background. *Good. Lets hope she doesn't come back and become a problem.* Lily thought. After a few minutes of talking and drinking, Lily noticed Rose starting to weave her way around, talking and chatting up others about one person in particular. Delilah. She would slip in comments like "Hey do you know someone named Delilah?" And they would always respond with something like "yeah, but shes taken." This didn't seem to faze Rose. "That won't be a problem." She would say. Meanwhile, Delilah was having drinks with Lily, when Rose came up and asked Delilah to dance. Delilah didn't answer right away, but when rose reached her hand out, almost identically to a blooming flower, Delilah couldn't do anything else but take it. "No, please wait! Don't go! Pl-" Lily called, but her precious, fragile little Delilah was gone. *Oh, its what you do to me!* Lily thought to herself. Rose had stolen her. Lily felt a rage spark within her, but it wasn't a spark. More of a lurching feeling deep within her stomach as she watched her perfect flower twirl gracefully into the arms of another. The acidic feeling bubbled to the surface, and it suddenly had a name. Jealousy. It wasn't a feeling that she had a lot experience with, since Delilah was the only thing she really cared about. Everything in her life revolved around her. Every breath, every heartbeat, all for Delilah. She couldn't let anything or anyone take Delilah from her. She *couldn't.* The acidic jealousy had almost taken control of her, when she pushed it down. No, if she did what she wanted to do now, Delilah would call her a monster, and Lily could never live with the object of her very existence to not love her anymore. So she waited. She did it in pure agony, but she waited until that filthy "Rose" took her hands of of Delilah. Perfect, beautiful, fragile, Delilah. Rose was headed to the bathrooms. Perfect. Lily followed her in. "Hello." I said to Rose, calling her attention. "Hm? Oh its you." Rose grumbled, visibly annoyed. "Mad I stole your pretty little flower away? Hmm, too bad, so sad. I want her, and I always get what I want. Now if you'll exuse me, I have a party to get back to." She tried to shove past Lily, but she wasn't having any of that. "Sit." Lily said firmly, pushing her to the ground. "Wha-Hey!" She yelped. "How dare you!" She exclaimed. The jealous-acid was now pushing against the invisible barrier of Lily's tolerance. "Okay, let my get this straight. You come into her life, and take her away from me, just because you want her? I assure you, I want and need her much more than you." I told her. She seemed scared. Good. "Stop talking about her like she's an object! You are clearly manipulating her! I bet if you let her see clearly, she wouldn't even love you!" Rose yelled. At then moment, the acid turned to fire. "Doesn't love me? DOESN'T LOVE ME?!" Lily whipped out her pocket knife, and Rose was gone. It didn't faze her. She would do anything for Delilah, anything. She threw the body out the window, and headed back into the party, where the object of her perfect love waited for her.
    Welp that's all folks! I'm currently writing a book with a similar situation, but I just wrote this because I got the idea from the song. Sorry its so long though. 😅 If you have any input, just tell me. Heh

    What's it like in New York city?

    But, girl, tonight you look so pretty
    Yes, you do
    Times 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

    I know times are gettin' 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'd just laugh along because we'd know
    That none of them have felt this way
    Delilah, I can promise you
    That by the time that 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 makin' history like I do

    There’s this 12 year old orphan girl and she has no friends, and gets bullied. Her only friend is her dog Delilah and her dream is to become a famous singer in New York. The girl calls heaven New York because it’s perfect in her dreams. She always sings to Delilah because Delilah gets so happy when she hears her singing voice. Delilah gets sick and they don’t have enough money to save her. She writes Delilah songs every week to help her feel less sad. The bullying keeps getting worse and she’s done with life. She writes Delilah one last letter before she sees Delilah again. yes I’m crying over this fake scenario in my head at 12 am

I feel like this would play at the end of a long and sad t.v show, it gave me vibes of someone reminiscing the old times. That or a closing scene in a long series, your watching the finale with feelings of regret, sadness that's its over, and absolutely overwhelmed that something that you have loved and have clung to for oh so long, if finally over.

    Alright so everyone is insisting on a story that is SUPER edgy for this but I'm just not feeling that.
    This feels more like a girl's soul who aches for Delilah. They were best friends in middle school, closer than that in high school, and still in love. They never made it official. The singer never thought they had to.
    Delilah moves away from their small town to go to university. The singer is heartbroken. She and Delilah still talk but... it isn't the same. They call every night, but the singer can feel the strain of the distance.
    This feels like the song that the singer wrote at 3am because she just missed Delilah so much, unable to get Delilah off of her mind. She writes about how they can have it all, that she wishes that they could just be together, that she wasn't a failing musician. This is the unnamed .mp3 file that she sends Delilah after spending hours recording.
    They love each-other, but they're so far away. It's hard to be in love with someone who you can't just hold and kiss the way that you wish to.

    This song is not only creepy, sad, longing, waiting, stalking, lurking in the shadows; but also comforting, touching, beautiful, happy**ish**, and strangely haunting.
    I also like this version of the song because it portrays the original, the creepy side to a person meeting another at a party, he leaves and writes a song about her, despite her already having a boyfriend.

    fun fact: this song was made for a girl name delilah, and a guy found out she's was moving to new york, and also found out she was cheating on him, with his best friend. even tho he knew, he still made this song for her. :)

      it was actually about a guy (tom higgenson) who met a girl (delilah) at a party. he thought she was rly beautiful and told her he would write a song abt her. she had a boyfriend (will) so she rejected him, but they became friends. a while later, tom kept his word and wrote this song abt her. it's a true story, they got interviewed lol.

    I know no one cares but heres how I imagine it:
    Whenever I listen to this I think of a long distance lesbian relationship. They FaceTime a lot, she is talking to Delilah. She know the distance is putting Delilah into a dark depressive state. She is trying to reassure her that everything is going to be ok and they will be together some day. She keeps writing songs for Delilah to make it feel like there is less distance and keep her happy, but she knows Delilah is getting more and more depressed. She is slowly getting more and more desperate to remind Delilah to hold on. Eventually she finds out that Delilah gave up and ended
    her life, but she refuses to believe. She goes to visit Delilah one last time, to sing to her one last time, hence the lyrics “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 makin' history like I do”, hoping Delilah hears her.
    Idk but this is just how I interpreted it

    so um
    this makes me think of...
    there’s a girl who was a victim of sexual assault twice (once by her dad who died recently, and once by her old boyfriend) no one knows about her father or her boyfriend and she is so conflicted about how to feel when she goes to her dad’s funeral. she’s quiet and reserved everywhere she goes and she is bullied for the way she dresses and for her random breakdowns when something triggers her ptsd. she hasn’t had any crushes or feelings for another person since the boyfriend incident, and hasn’t been able to be in any sort of committing relationship because she’s so scared of who they could turn out to be. because of this, she doesn’t have any friends. she suddenly realizes how lonely she is and is now looking and looking for a friend or for just someone to talk to. and then a new girl (delilah) shows up at her school. delilah is patient and empathetic and she listens to the girl whenever she needs it. the girl finds that she just can’t get enough of her. she’s so obsessed with everything about delilah. one day she realizes what it is and she realizes that delilah feels the same, and suddenly a beautiful friendship turns into a beautiful relationship. this is the first time in years she has opened up and formed this kind of relationship with anyone. for once in her life she is genuinely happy. her panic attacks get less frequent and she doesn’t have as many flash backs and reoccurring dreams about it anymore. it’s like the world gave her hell up to this point, and delilah is her heaven.
    delilah is respectful of her boundaries and always waits for the other girl to be ready. she doesn’t know the details, but she is sure something happened in the past. this doesn’t stop her from loving her though.
    they are perfect for each other. they’re both so happy and in love and the girl thinks she’s finally found her happily ever after...
    when something happens...
    the summer after the last year of high school delilah goes on a trip to new york city for college. she leaves a letter for the girl saying she loves her more than anything and she will see her soon after college, and they can move in with each other and make a family. the college she is going to is a performing arts college and it is going to help her achieve her dreams of being an actress.
    “shine as bright as the lights in NY my love”
    -delilah
    the moment she steps onto the street she gets hit by a car who is blinded by the lights.
    the girl hears it from the old school she goes to and she spirals into a deep depression. this was not how it was supposed to go. this wasn’t in the plan.
    what did she do to deserve this?
    what did either of them do to lose their happily ever after?
    she refuses to believe that she is gone and soon starts writing letters and songs like delilah wrote and sang to her and mailing them to her apartment thinking that she’ll get them and one day reply.
    she never does.
    the girl finds an old song deliah wrote for her and then sings herself to sleep with it.
    she doesn’t wake up...

    @myraleanne8338 4 роки тому +850

    this is my look at it
    In high school Delilah was nice to someone who had a mental illness and he/she became obsessed with her. Delilah went to college in NYC and the person became more obsessed by the day with the fantasy of them ending up together. The person got to New York to surprise Delilah but she wasn’t as happy to see them as the person had hoped. The person being heartbroken brutally murdered Delilah in their anger and heartbreak. The person still loves Delilah and is tortured everyday with the thought that he/she killed her. The song ends with the person killing themselves to escape the torture with the hope that they might finally be together.

This is the first one I can listen to that doesn't take me back to the mental state I was in during those times; quite the opposite. It feels like I can direct all the hurt and anger they've caused me back on them and show how they don't hold any power over me anymore. For that, I truly am grateful of you and your skills, please keep doing what you do ❤️✨

    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
    Times 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 gettin' 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'd just laugh along because we'd know
    That none of them have felt this way
    Delilah, I can promise you
    That by the time that 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 makin' 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
    What you do to me, oh oh, woah, woah

      @@jayden7596 oh shit she did? must've slightly misread some parts in the book but my mind locked onto the point where katniss saw herself as finnick and his life flashing before his eyes before he died.

      @@jayden7596 Wait- I just reread the scene. It states "As one yanks back his head to deliver the death bite, something bizzare happens. It's as if I'm Finnick, watching images of my life flash by. The mast of a boat, a silver parachute, Mags laughing, a pink sky, Beetee's trident, Annie in her wedding dress, waves breaking over the rocks. Then it's over."
      I don't see any text saying she shot him - are you talking about Cato, who was gnawed into a bloody pulp by the arena's mutts, who begged for Katniss to shoot him and end it all? ( She shot him )
