Samson & Delilah

by Emly Starr

on Let Me Sing (1981)

The barmen, they know all your stories
A different girl for every day
You told them 'bout your former glories
The whole world knew anyway

Oh... you got yourself a reputation
Oh oh... you're only livin' for sensation

Samson - passion and desire loving your Delilah
Samson - I can light your fire, listen to Delilah
Samson

You like to be the main attraction
With all your fancy friends around
But does it give you satisfaction
Or does it bring you down?

Oh... you got yourself a reputation
Oh oh... a lonely life built on sensation

Samson - passion and desire loving your Delilah
Samson - I can light your fire, listen to Delilah
Don't run away, now hear what I say

I'll give you a lifeline (Hang on, hang on)
Before it's too late
You're reaching a deadline (Hang on, hang on)
You better not wait

Oh... you could change your reputation
Oh oh... love beyond imagination

Samson - passion and desire loving your Delilah
Samson - leave your fancy friends behind
Leave your wild hair

Samson, I love you
Samson
