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

[Chorus]
Ohh, it's what you do to me, ohh, it's what you do to me
Ohh, it's what you do to me, ohh, it's what you do to me
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 your breath away, I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall, we'd have it all

[Chorus]

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 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 making 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

Ohh, it's what you do to me, ohh, it's what you do to me
Ohh, it's what you do to me, ohh, it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Ohhh
