> A secret melody, I've been told,
> King David played, a story to unfold,
> A sound that pleased the Lord, or so they say.
> But you're not one for music's gentle sway.
> It follows simply, a chord progression known,
> Sorrow descends, then brighter notes are shown,
> The troubled king composing his holy song.
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Your faith was strong, but proof became your need,
> Upon the rooftop, you observed her deed.
> Her beauty in the moonlight brought your downfall.
> She tied you down, without remorse or care,
> Shattered your power, stole your royal hair,
> And from your lips, she drew that sacred call.
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> You say my use of the name is wrong,
> The name itself, I haven't known for long.
> But even if I did, what business is it of yours?
> A sudden brilliance shines within each line,
> The essence stays, whichever you define,
> The sacred or the broken, the heartfelt plea.
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> My best I tried, though little it might seem,
> Unable to feel, I reached for a waking dream.
> I spoke the truth, no trickery intended here.
> And though the path I took led me astray,
> Before the Master of the Melody, I'll stay,
> With just this praise upon my tongue so clear.
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
> Hallelujah, Hallelujah
