Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah - I Know It's Over Lyrics
I heard there was a secret chordThat david played and it pleased the lordBut you dont really care for music, do youWell it goes like this the fourth, the fifthThe minor fall and the major liftThe baffled king composing hallelujahHallelujah...Well your faith was strong but you needed proofYou saw her bathing on the roofHer beauty and the moonlight overthrew youShe tied you to her kitchen chairShe broke your throne and she cut your hairAnd from your lips she drew the hallelujahHallelujah...Baby Ive been here beforeIve seen this room and Ive walked this floorI used to live alone before I knew youIve seen your flag on the marble archBut love is not a victory marchIts a cold and its a broken hallelujahHallelujah...Well there was a time when you let me knowWhats really going on belowBut now you never show that to me do you?But remember when I moved in youAnd the holy dove was moving tooAnd every breath we drew was hallelujahOh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my headAnd as I climb into an empty bed - oh well, enough saidI know its over still I cling, I dont know where else I can go, over and over...Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my headSee the sea it wants to take me, the knife wants to slit (cut) meDo you think you can help me?Sad veiled bride please be happy - handsome groom give her roomLoud loutish lover treat her kindly though she needs youMore than she loves you - and I know its over - still I clingI dont know where else I can go - over and over.....Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my headOh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my headWell, maybe theres a God aboveBut all Ive ever learned from loveWas how to shoot somebody who outdrew youIts not a cry that you hear at nightIts not somebody whos seen the lightIts a cold and its a broken hallelujahHallelujah...
