Hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

But you don't really care for music, do you?
Love is not a victory march
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Maybe I've been here before

Maybe there's a God above
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
The minor fall, the major lift
And all I ever learned from love
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
Hallelujah, hallelujah
What's real and going on below
Hallelujah, hallelujah
But now you never show it to me, do you?
I used to live alone before I knew you

Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
I know this room, I've walked this floor
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
And every breath we drew was hallelujah

It's not somebody who's seen the light
And remember when I moved in you?
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
She tied you to a kitchen chair
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
And it's not a cry you can hear at night

I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
The holy dark was moving too
Hallelujah, hallelujah
The baffled king composing hallelujah

There was a time you let me know
You saw her bathing on the roof
