|
I heard there was a secret chord |
|
That David played to please the Lord |
|
But you don't really care for music, do you? |
|
it goes like this the fourth, the fifth |
|
The minor fall and the major lift |
|
The baffled king composing Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Well, your faith was strong but you needed proof |
|
You saw her bathing on the roof |
|
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you |
|
And she tied you to her kitchen chair |
|
She broke your throne and she cut your hair |
|
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Yeah, baby, I've been here before |
|
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor |
|
I used to live alone before I knew you |
|
And I've seen your flag on that marble arch |
|
Your love is not a victory march |
|
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Well, there was a time when you let me know |
|
What was going on below |
|
Now you don't never show that to me, do you? |
|
But remember when I moved in you |
|
And the holy dove was moving too |
|
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Well, now maybe there's a God above |
|
But all I've ever learned from love |
|
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you |
|
And it's not your cry that I hear at night, no |
|
It's not someone who's seen the light |
|
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
Hallelujah |
