Regina Spektor - Samson LYRICS

I KNOW THE LYRICS ARE NOT 100% RIGHT. I'm sure her voice must be clear but I only have 70% of hearing in one ear and 65% in the other. I didn't have internet access during the time of making this video so I couldn't google the lyrics either.

ASIDE FROM THAT
REGINA SPEKTOR PWNS, THIS IS THE GREATEST SONG EVER.

So....The song's NOT about cancer?

[IrishAngelAnime]

@Amauz123 i dont think it is

[HiApocalypeExists]

My interpretation on this is that this is "Delilah" singing the song, saying that she really did love him and she was forced to cut his hair. And that she's sorry. and how the bible didn't mention that their's was a more pure love than its made out to be. and how she loved him before he loved her and she wasn't just leading him on.

Well, that how i always pictured it anyway. :)

[HatterMyMann]

I finally found out! Samson is from the bible....Apparently God gave him amazing strength from his hair! He fell in love with this girl, who betrayed him and cut his hair...With this strength he killed thousands of soliders.So the girl he loved cut his hair, and the remaining soliders threw him in prison..Well he stayed there, and his hair grew back. Execution day came, and he knocked down the colums, killing all the soliders, the girl he loved, and himself(: Sorry if thats hard to understand!

@Quocalimar because its based on a story from the bible lol.

@Quocalimar

What's wrong with doing both o-e?

We're trying to make sense of it, and since now it does to me, I can enjoy it some more.

[V0nneke17]

Alright, maybe it isn't -.-'

[V0nneke17]

I think samson is about her dog or cat xD

Could be, right? :P

[Quocalimar]

why must we connect this to the bible, why can't we just enjoy the song?

[plughes15]

It is a reference to both her friend and the bible so its both

[missy21007]

okay this ISNT about cancer, its about samson and delilah in the bible "your hair was long when we first met" but then she betrayed him and cut it off

[theoceansmusic272]

this song reminds me of someone i loved

[Pixiestyc]

the interpreter of these lyrics knows nothing of the Bible....or else can't hear...

[27Roughneck27]

@IrishAngelAnime This seems like it, someone made a love story about Samson and Delilah. Along with the whole "the Bible didn't mention us" it adds to the story in a way.
