Bon Jovi - "Hallelujah" Lyrics

Christian Song Lyrics & Video

Hallelujah lyrics by Bon Jovi
Well I heard there was a secret chord
that david played to please the lord
but you don't really care for music, do you
well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
the minor fall and the major lift
the baffled king composing hallelujah

hallelujah... (x4)

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 her kitchen chair and
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah

hallelujah... (x4)

Yeah 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
and it's not your flag on that marble arch
no love is not a victory march
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

hallelujah... (x4)

well there was a time when you 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 dove was moving too
and every breath we drew was hallelujah
hallelujah...(x4)

well now maybe there's a god above
but all i've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
and it's not a cry that you hear at night
it's not someone who's seen the light
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

hallelujah... (to fade)
