Shrek - Halleluja lyrics

rate me

I've 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 />

<br />

It goes like this...the fourth, the fifth<br />

The minor fall<br />

The major lift<br />

The baffled King composing Hallelujah<br />

<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

<br />

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 />

<br />

She tied you to a kitchen chair<br />

She broke your throne<br />

She cut your hair<br />

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

<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

<br />

Maybe I have been here before<br />

I know this room, I've walked this floor<br />

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

<br />

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

Love is not a victory march<br />

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

<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

<br />

There was a time you let me know<br />

What's real and going on below<br />

But now you never show it to me, do you?<br />

<br />

And remember when I moved in you<br />

The holy dark was moving too<br />

And every breath we drew was Hallelujah<br />

<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

<br />

Maybe there's a God above<br />

And all I ever learned from love<br />

Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you.<br />

<br />

And it's not a cry you can 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<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah<br />

Hallelujah
