Lyrics[]
- I've heard there was a secret chord
- That David played and it pleased the Lord
- But you don't really care for music, do ya?
- It goes like this, the forth, the fifth
- The minor fall, the major lift
- The baffled king composing hallelujah
- Hallelujah, hallelujah
- Hallelujah, hallelujah
- Your faith was strong, but you needed proof
- You saw her bathing on the roof
- Her beauty in 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
- Baby, I've 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
- There was a time you let me know
- What's really going on below
- But now you never show it to me, do ya?
- I remember when I moved in you
- And the holy dark was moving too
- And every breath we drew was hallelujah
- Hallelujah, hallelujah
- Hallelujah, hallelujah
- Maybe there's a God above
- But all I ever learned from love
- Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew ya
- 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
- Hallelujah, hallelujah
- Hallelujah, hallelujah
