Clare Bowditch And The Feeding Set - Hallelujah lyrics

rate me

Well I've heard there was a secret chord

That David played, and he pleased the Lord

But you don't really care for music, do you?

Well, it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth

The minor fall and the major lift

The baffled king composing hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Well your faith was strong, but you needed proof

You saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you

And she tied you to her kitchen chair

And she broke your throne, and she cut your hair

And from your lips you drew the 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, 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, you know,

I used to live alone before I knew you

And I've seen your flag on the marble arch

And love is not a victory march

It's a cold, it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
