Macksy - Ein Loblied lyrics
[Macksy - Ein Loblied lyrics]
Now 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
Halleluu uhuhu-ujah
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
Halleluu uhuhu-ujah
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
Halleluu uhuhu-ujah
There was a time you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Halleluu uhuhu-ujah
You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light in every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Halleluu uhuhu-ujah
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 somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Halleluu uhuhu-ujah
Now we gathered here just for making sure
We remember all that we endured
You keep disappearing from my future
So I think of you while you fade away
And I'll sing for you, but everything I say
Is a helpless and a woesome Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Halleluu uhuhu-ujah
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
Halleluu uhuhu-ujah
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
Halleluu uhuhu-ujah
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
Halleluu uhuhu-ujah
Baby I have been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you

It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
