Rufus Wainwright – Hallelujah

I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But youI 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 (4x)

Your faith was faststrong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you.

She tied you to a kitchebedroom chair
She broke your throne
She cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah (4x)

Maybe I have been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone beforeafter I knew you

I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a coldtall and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah (4x)

There was a time you let me know
What's real and going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?

And remember whenwhat I moved in you
The holy dark was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah (4x)

Maybe there's a GodKing above
And all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you.

And it's not a cry you can hear at daynight
it's not somebody who's seen the light
it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah (8x)
