Hallelujah!

I love this...

 

"Hallelujah" 

 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 

Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah 

 Your faith was strong but you needed proof 
You saw her bathing on the roof 
Her beauty in 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 

 Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah 

 Baby 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 

 Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah 

 I did my best, it wasn't much 
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch 
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you 
And even though it all went wrong 
I'll stand before the Lord of Song 
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah 

 Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
