Hey There Delilah
Plain White T's Lyrics


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
Time 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'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah, I can promise you
That by the time 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'll 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, whoa, whoa
Oh whoa, oh
Oh, oh

The line(s): "A thousand miles seems pretty far, but they've got trains and planes and cars, I'd walk to you if I had no other way." Really speaks to me because I have friends from all the way across the country and the guy I like and this part just really... sits with me, y'know? I won't be seeing any of them until next year probably. I miss them, even though I saw them like... last month. Some of them. I don't have contact with most of them either, so it's hard.

I miss you guys, if you're reading this. You don't know who I am. But look out for each other, remember the ones from afar. They miss you, they send their love. Remember to show people that you car.

When you see that person again, give them a huge hug and a big smile. Tears are okay.

Just show them you care.

Love you guys.

The line " I'd walk to you if I had no other way" always makes me tear up. It shows the extent of someone's love, even if it's not meant literally.

Fun fact he wrote this song to a real person named Delilah and she had a boyfriend. He invited her to his Emmy’s nomination and she declined because she had a boyfriend.
