Plain White T’s – Hey There Delilah

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

Oh 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

Oh it’s what you do to me

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 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

Oh it’s what you do to me
What you do to me.

Prevod na srpski

Dalila

Hej, Dalila,
Kako je u Njujorku?
Ja sam hiljadu kilometra daleko,
Ali večeras prelepo izgledaš.
Stvarno izgledaš.
Ni Tajms skver se ne sjaji kao ti.
Kunem se da je tako.

Hej, Dalila,
Nemoj da se brineš zbog daljine.
Ja sam tu ako budeš bila usamljena,
Poslušaj još jedanput ovu pesmu.
Sklopi oči.
Slušam moj glas, prerušio sam se u njega.
Uz tebe sam.

Ah, to ti meni radiš!
To ti meni radiš…

Hej, Dalila,
Znam da dolaze teška vremena.
Ali, veruj mi na reč,
Jednoga dana ću platiti račune ovom gitarom.
Biće nam dobro.
Imaćemo život koji smo znali da ćemo imati.
Časna reč.

Hej, Dalila,
Imam još mnogo toga da kažem.
Ako bi ti svaka jednostavna pesma
Koju sam ti napisao oduzela dah,
Napisao bih sve.
Još više bi se zaljubla u mene.
Imali bismo sve.

Ah, to ti meni radiš!

Hiljadu kilometra zvuči vrlo daleko,
Ali postoje avioni, vozovi i automobili.
Pešačio bih do tebe da nema drugih načina.
Naši prijatelji bi nas ismejavali,
A mi bismo se zajedno smejali jer bismo znali
Da još niko od njih nije osetio ovo.
Dalila, mogu da ti obećam
Da, dokle nama ne dođe kraj,
Ovaj svet neće biti isti.
A to je tvoja krivica.

Hej, Dalila,
Budi mi dobro i nemoj da ti nedostajem.
Još dve godine je ostalo da završiš školu,
A ja ću stvarati istoriju, kao što radim.
Znaš da sve radim zbog tebe.
Radimo sve što želimo.
Hej, Dalila, tebi.
Ovo je za tebe.

Ah, to ti meni radiš!
To ti meni radiš…
