Hallelujah |
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 you? |
It goes like this: the fourth, 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 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 |
You say I took the name in vain |
I don't even know the name |
But if I did, well really, what's it to you? |
There's a blaze of light |
In every word |
It doesn't matter which you heard |
The holy or the broken Hallelujah |
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
I did my best, it wasn't much |
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch |
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you |
And even though |
It all went wrong |
I'll stand before the Lord of Song |
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah |
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
