"Delilah" lyrics - MARCUS KING

MARCUS KING
"Delilah"

When I first met you, didn't know a damn thing
Just said that I would try to find my way
Didn't have no money, just a set of wheels
And a whole lot of time to kill

[Pre-Chorus:]
I've been rolling on a Southern wind
Cold and weathered in the eye of the storm
Please, leave your light on
In case I get back home before the dawn

[Chorus:]
Oh, my Delilah
Don't you miss me when I go
Soon, I'll be riding
Tryna find my way back home

[Instrumental break]

When I first left you, all I wanted was to stay
Been six long months since I've lost my way
Never saw it coming it nearly struck me blind
The thought of ever leaving you behind

[Pre-Chorus:]
I've been rolling on a Southern wind
Cold and weathered the grip with a stone
Please, leave your light on
In case I get back home, darling, before the dawn

[Chorus:]
Oh, my Delilah
Don't you miss me when I go
Soon, I'll be riding
Tryna find my way back home
Oh, my Delilah
Don't you miss me when I go
Soon, I'll be riding
Trying to find my way back home

[Outro:]
Trying to find my way back home
