Rufus Wainwright - Hallelujah lyrics

[Verse 1]: 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" [Chorus]: Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah [Verse 2]: 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, and she cut your hair And from your lips, she drew the "Hallelujah" [Chorus]: Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah [Verse 3]: 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" [Chorus]: Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah [Verse 4]: 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 when I moved in you? The holy dark was moving, too And every breath we drew was, "Hallelujah" [Chorus]: Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah [Verse 5]: Maybe there's a God 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 night It's not somebody who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken "Hallelujah" [Outro] Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
