Matt Nathanson - Hum Hallelujah lyrics

It's all a game of this or that
Now versus then
Better off again, worst of way
And you're someone, you know someone
Not someone I once knew
I just wanna be a part of that
The road outside my house is
Paved with good intentions
Hire a construction crew 'cause it's
Hell on the engine
And you are the dreamer, we are dream
I could write it better than
You've ever felt it

So hum hallelujah, just off the key of reason
I thought I loved you
It was just how you looked in the light
A teenage vow in a parking lot
'til tonight do us part
I sing the blues and swallow them too



My words are my faith
To hell with our good name
A remix of your guts, your insides x rayed
And one day we'll get nostalgic for disaster
We're a bull, your ears are just a china shop
I love you in the same way
There's a chapel in a hospital
One foot in your bedroom and
One foot out the door
Sometimes we take chances
Sometimes we take pills
I could write it better than you ever felt it

So hum hallelujah, just off the key of reason
I thought I loved you
It was just how you looked in the light
A teenage vow in a parking lot
'til tonight do us part
I sing the blues and swallow them too

A teenage vow in a parking lot
'til tonight do us part
I sing the blues and swallow them too
