Leonardo Cohen:
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, (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, she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, (Hallelujah...)
Maybe I have been here before.
I know this room, I've walked this floor.
I used to live alone before I knew you.
I've seen your flag on the marble arch,
Love is not a victory march,
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, (Hallelujah...)
