Dawn & Jimmy 25 Dec 2010: Hallelujah, Words & Music by Leonard Cohen

Hallelujah, Copyright Leonard 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? Well, it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth The minor fall, the major lift The baffled king composing Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Well, 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 Well, baby, I’ve been here before. I’ve seen this room, and I’ve walked this floor. I used to live alone before I knew you. But I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch, And love is not a victory march, It’s a cold and it is a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Well, there was a time when you’d let me know What’s really going on below, But now you never show that to me, do you? But remember when I moved in you, And the Holy Ghost was moving too, And every breath we drew was Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Well, maybe there is a God above, But all that I’ve ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you. It’s not a cry that you hear at night, And it is not somebody who has seen the light It’s a cold and it is a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah …
