Song or music video: "Samson" - Regina Spektor

Lyrics:
You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
I have to go, I have to go
Your hair was long when we first met

Additional prompt: Who is the narrator? Is she Delilah, whose love was misrepresented in history books? Or is she someone who loved him first, before Delilah, and had to stand by while her man was betrayed by the woman he loved? Would love to hear what you come up!
