She stood in the doorway, shaking from fever
Needing a drink, that was clear
I tried to look away but the way her body swayed
To the music, made me order a beer
She was a thin one, she ordered a gin rum
I saw myself sinking again
When her eye caught my eye
Like two planes crashing in the sky
I knew I'd stumbled into the wrong part of town
She said her name was Delilah, no, I'm not joking
I thought to myself, my name is mud
That first waltz on the dance floor felt like a world war
And I knew, right away, I was in love
O Lord, how my heart, throwing boomerang darts
Opens itself to a**ault
When her eye caught my eye
We both cried out "banzai"
I knew then I could never go home
Isn't it funny, how one look -
Can lead to years of pain and regret?
I'm not saying it was all bad, or that she was born sad
But if she can smile, I haven't seen her do it yet
So we parted with pa**ion, you could say in the same fashion
We met, on that hot drunken night
When her eye caught my eye
And two birds fell from the sky
And landed on the wrong side of right
