Biography

Polly Jean "PJ" Harvey MBE (born 9 October 1969 Bridport, Dorset, England) is an English musician and singer-songwriter. Harvey began her career in 1988 when she joined Bristol band [a668599] as a vocalist, guitarist and saxophone player. In January 1991, following her departure from [a=Automatic Dlamini], Polly Jean Harvey formed her own band with former bandmates [a=Rob Ellis] (drums, backing vocals) and [a344002] (bass). Harvey decided to name the trio "PJ Harvey" after rejecting other names as "nothing felt right at all or just suggested the wrong type of sound". The trio consisted of Harvey on vocals and guitars, Ellis on drums and backing vocals, and Olliver on bass. Olliver later departed to rejoin the still-active Automatic Dlamini. He was subsequently replaced with [a=Steven Vaughan]. The band released two albums: "[Link]" (1992) and "[Link]" (1993). The band's final tour was to support [a=U2] in August 1993, after which the trio officially disbanded. Since that PJ Harvey started recording music solo under the same name.

LYRICS

Samson, the strength
That's in, your arms
Oh to be, your stunning
Bride
Samson, your hair
Glistening, like sun
Oh would, that it
Were mine

Samson, your hair
That's in, my hands
I'll keep it safe
You're mine, you're mine

He said wait, said wait
Delilah my babe, Delilah my babe
Said wait, said wait
Delilah my babe, Delilah my babe

Said wait, said wait
Delilah my babe
You lied in my face
You cut off my hair
You lied in my bed

Samson, your stay
With your 'lilah
I'll hold you in
My hands
Yeah

Your hair
Restrain
My man
My man

He said wait, said wait
Delilah my babe, Delilah my babe
Said wait, said wait
Delilah my babe, Delilah my babe

He said wait, said wait
Delilah my babe, Delilah my babe

Said wait, said wait
Delilah my babe
You lied in my face
You cut off my hair
You lied in my bed
