Modern Day Delilah Lyrics
Kiss
Lyrics
Yeah, yeah
I still remember when I saw
Your face across the room
Told me to take you but the
Price of love would seal my doom
I know the way you made the others break
But loving me would be your first mistake
Same old ways (same old ways)
Modern Day Delilah
(It's time you learned to give)
Queen to slave (alright)
Modern Day Delilah
Listen
You lived your glory in a liar's
Haze you called the truth
The same old story of a
Social climb from wasted youth
You thought that you could bring me to my knees
But who's the one who's crying, "Baby, please."?
Same old ways (same old ways)
Modern Day Delilah
(It's time you learned to give)
Queen to slave (Oh yeah)
Modern Day Delilah
Hey
Hey, just like the trigger of a loaded gun
You were the reason for the damage done
Too many lovers like a hunter's prey
Not today
I know the way you made the others break
But loving me would be your first mistake
It's time you learned to give
Same old ways (aww)
Modern Day (Oh) Delilah
Shame, shame, shame on you girl
Queen to slave (come on now)
Modern Day Delilah
Yeah, yeah, it's time you learned to give
Same old ways (same old ways)
Now you'll pay (Oh) Delilah
Queen to slave, love's decay, Delilah, ahh
