Sort Of Delilah

Anna Nalick · Broken Doll & Odds & Ends [2011]

You were at an end, breaking at the bend

Heaven was an awful lot to lose

What if I'd have prayed, if I would've stayed

If I would've thought about you



I just covered your eyes

And let you crumble down, down, down on the inside

All this trouble is mine

I let you crumble down, down, down on the inside



[Chorus]

I can't lie, love

I'm sort of Delilah, oh, oh

And I know

That I let you down

I let you down

When I let you down



Once you were a tower, and given the power

How did I become the wrecking ball

Didn't wanna hurt you, didn't deserve you

I'm usually the victim after all



I just covered your eyes

And let you crumble down, down, down on the inside

All this trouble is mine

I let you crumble down, down, down on the inside



[Chorus]

I can't lie, love

I'm sort of Delilah, oh, oh

And I know

That I let you down

I let you down

I let you down



And I might not have started if I knew that I would break your heart

And if I tell you I'm sorry, would I build you back to where you started

And I became the bad guy when I broke your heart and you just let me

I don't wanna be the bad guy



I just covered your eyes

And let you crumble down, down, down on the inside

All this trouble is mine

I let you crumble down, down, down on the inside



[Chorus]

I can't lie, love

I'm sort of Delilah, oh, oh

And I know

That I let you down

I let you down

I let you down



I let you down

I let you down

I let you down



Ooh, let you down

I let you down

I let you down



I let you down

I let you down

I let you down
