"Hallelujah" lyrics
"Hallelujah"
(originally by Leonard Cohen)
I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and 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 you
She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Baby, I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
You know, I used to live alone before I knew ya
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
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Desi Valentine - "Eyes On Me" Welcome to the show
The curtains open
Where I stand and sing
What can't be spoken
I disguise myself in notes
In the lights and smoke
I'll be the object of your affection
'Cause I need to feed on...
Vance Joy - "We're Going Home" Under the surface you don't know what you'll find
Hmm, until it's your time
No second chances but all we can do is try
Hmm, I made up my mind
I can't see you
But I hear your call
Baby, hold on now...
Aron Wright - "You & Me (The Wildfire)" Street lights are cutting off now
And the roads are filling up
Everybody's going somewhere
But baby I know
I was standing on the ceiling
Saw a plane crash on the news
They say the chances of that...
Skrizzly Adams - "Resurrect Me" Resurrect me
Build me into something great and defend me
I'll sing songs for the damned and the lonely
Cause the boys in your head they ain't like me
They don't kneel down and scream "resurrect me"...
Sleeping At Last - "Taste" I am alive, I am awake.
I am aware of what light tastes like.
The curtains drawn, the table's set;
I wanna be, I wanna be, at my best.
It's bittersweet, it's poetry.
Careful pruning of my dead...
