Lyrics
Did you hear it creeping
Creeping through the night
The stumbling fugitive of the light
We made it through the whiskey and the smoke
The years of being thin and being and being broke
Oh we're not falling through the basement floor
Delilah have your way with me once more
Did you maybe mistake your trials here
For visions of the absolute, glorious flight
Angels and devils running far afield
Gathering round some ancient fright
Oh I'm not asking you for anything
Delilah have your way with me again
Oh the telling of it grows with every generation
Oh the wisest of them falls into an open grave
Oh I'm blinded by the spangled light of day
Oh I'm on the edge of throwing everything away
But I'm not asking you for anything
Delilah have your way with me again
