Hallelujah

 

Now I heard there was a secret chord, that David played and it pleased the Lord

Your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof

You say I took the name in vain, I don't even know the name

Well, maybe there's a God above; as for me all I've ever learned from love

There was a time you let me know what's really going on below

I did my best, it wasn't much, I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch

 

But you don't really care for music do ya? It goes like this the fourth the fifth

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya She tied you to a kitchen chair

But if I did, well really, what's it to ya? There's a blaze of light in every word

Is how to shoot somebody who outdrew you. But it's not a crime you're here tonight

But now you never show it to me, do you? And I remember when I moved in you

I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya, And even though it all went wrong

 

the minor fall and the major lift, the baffled king composing hallelujah

She broke your throne, & she cut your hair & from your lips she drew the hallelujah

It doesn't matter which you heard, The holy or the broken Hallelujah

It's not some pilgrim who claims to have seen the Light;

No, it's a cold and it's a very broken Hallelujah

& the holy dove she was moving too & every single breath we drew was Hallelujah

I'll stand before the Lord of Song, With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Chorus:

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

 

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
