Hallelujah

K. D. Lang · Recollection [2010]

I heard there was a secret chord

That David played, and it pleased the Lord

You don't really care for music, do ya?

It goes like this

The fourth, the fifth

The minor fall, the major lift

The baffled king composing 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 ya

She tied you

To a kitchen chair

She broke your throne, and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew Hallelujah



Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah



Baby iv'e been here before,

Iv'e seen this room and ive walked the floor,

I used to live alone before i knew ya

But ive seen your flag on the marble arch,

Our love is not a victory march,

It's a cold and its a broken hallelujah



Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah



Maybe there's a God above,

But all iv'e ever learnt from love,

Is how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya,

It's not a cry that u hear at night,

It's not someone whos seen the light,

It's a cold and broken hallelujah



Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah
