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 a kitchen chair She broke your throne She cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Maybe I have been here before I know this room, I've walked this floor I used to live alone before I knew you. 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

Maybe there's a God above And all I ever learned from love Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you. And it's not a cry you can hear at night it's not somebody who's seen the light it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
