Lyrics
All that’s new in love or old in love is in her eyes
Keeper of the flame that never dies
Refrain
Delilah, so enchanting, so fair
Ever near, she’s the spirit of love, timeless love
She’s warm as the fire is warm
Softly leading beginners in love through the storm
Since time began, since love has been known
She told ev’ry man, “Why wander alone?”
Delilah, with so much to disclose
If you’re seeking the secret of love Delilah knows
