Jason Castro - Hallelujah lyrics

rate me

I heard there was a secret chord<br />

That david played and it pleased the lord<br />

But you don't really care for music, do you<br />

Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth<br />

The minor fall and the major lift<br />

The baffled king composing hallelujah<br />

<br />

Hallelujah…<br />

<br />

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof<br />

You saw her bathing on the roof<br />

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you<br />

She tied you to her kitchen chair<br />

She broke your throne and she cut your hair<br />

And from your lips she drew the hallelujah<br />

<br />

Hallelujah…<br />

<br />

Baby I've been here before<br />

I've seen this room and I've walked this floor<br />

I used to live alone before I knew you<br />

I've seen your flag on the marble arch<br />

But love is not a victory march<br />

It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah<br />

<br />

Hallelujah…<br />

<br />

Well there was a time when you let me know<br />

What's really going on below<br />

But now you never show that to me do you<br />

But remember when I moved in you<br />

And the holy dove was moving too<br />

And every breath we drew was hallelujah<br />

<br />

Well, maybe there's a god above<br />

But all I've ever learned from love<br />

Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you<br />

It's not a cry that you hear at night<br />

It's not somebody who's seen the light<br />

It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah<br />

<br />

Hallelujah…
