Hallelujah

Maybe 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



Maybe I've 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

And 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 I ever learned from love

Was how to go at someone who outdrew you

And it's not a cry you can hear at night

It's not who's seen the light

It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
