Well I heard there was a secret chord That David played, and it pleased the lord But you don't really care for music, do ya? Well it goes like this The fourth, the fifth The minor fall and the major lift The baffled king composing hallelujah
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you She tied you to her kitchen chair And she broke your throne and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Well 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 ya I've seen your flag on the marble arch 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's really going on below But now you never show that to me do you? And 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 maybe there's a god above But all I've ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who'd out drew ya And it's not a cry that you hear at night It's not somebody who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
