Hey there Delilah (I'm at the MTC)

I saw this on Facebook and I loved it!



Here are the Lyrics:

Hey there Delilah, whats it like at BYU?
Im just a quarter mile away, but feel so far away from you,
But that will do,
Cuz two years from now Ill be with you,
I know thats true.

Hey there Delilah, dont you worry about the distance,
Few more months and I can call you both on Mothers Day and Christmas.
Close your eyes,
Then just think of suits and ties,
But not other guys.

Cuz, you said youd wait for me,
O, you said youd wait for me,
O, Im at the MTC,
O, Im at the MTC, at the MTC.

Now have some patience and dont think of dating Conner,
Cuz two more years you may be done with school,
But Ill return with honor.
I cant wait,
Just two more years till our next date,
It will be great.

O when you told me I was the love of your life,
And I just held you close and kissed you just like Ill kiss my wife.
We said goodbye,
And I gave you my favorite tie,
Theres no need to cry.

Cuz, you said youd wait for me,
O, you said youd wait for me,
O, Im at the MTC,
O, Im at the MTC, at the MTC.

There were RMs who made fun of me and said youll never wait for me,
To them I say oh ye, of little faith.
Cuz weve been dating for two months and I think that thats long enough,
To know someone enough to feel this way.
I carry your picture with me and talk about you constantly,
Im driving my companion insane,
And youre to blame.

Woke up this morning, checked the mail right at dawn,
And just believe me girl how shocked I was to read those words,
Dear John, I think were through,
I meet a guy better than you,
Go ahead and cry if you want to,
Sincerely Delilah, missing you,
P.S. were through.

O, you didnt wait for me,
O, you didnt wait for me,
O, you didnt wait for me,
O, and Im only at the MTC, at the MTC
