Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen)

Now, 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 ya

She tied you to, a kitchen chair

She broke your throne, and she cut your hair

And from your lips, she Drew, the Hallelujah


Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah


Now, maybe I've, been here before

I know this room and I've walked this floor

I used to live alone before, I knew you

And I've seen your flag, on the Marble Arch

He love is not, of 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, now you never even show it to me, do you?

I remember when I moved in you

And the holy dove, she was moving too

And every single breath that we drew was Hallelujah


Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
