Your really have to listen to it to understand. It's originally by Jeff Buckley.
"Well I've heard that there's a secret cord
David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lifts
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
Well you had your faith
But you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
A beauty in the moonlight overthrew ya
Then she tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
Well, Baby, I have been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
You know I used to live alone before I knew ya
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
You know love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
Well there was a time when you let me know
Just what was really going on below
But now you never show that to me, do ya?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
Well maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who out drew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who has seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah..."
