Well, I heard there was a secret chord That 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 lift The baffled king composes Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah    Well, your faith was strong, but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew ya She tied you to her kitchen chair And she broke your throne, and she cut your hair And from your lips you drew Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah    Well, baby, I've 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 And love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah    Well, there was a time when you let me know What's really going on below But now you never show that to me do ya But remember when I moved in you And the Holy Dove was moving too And every breath we drew was Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah    Maybe there's a God above But all I have ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya 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, Hallelujah    Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque une lutte entre l'amour, la foi et la souffrance. On y retrouve une référence au roi David, qui évoque une mélodie secrète appréciée par le Seigneur. Cependant, ce mélange de beauté et de douleur est au cœur de l'expérience humaine, où l'amour est souvent teinté de désillusion. Le protagoniste se remémore des moments passés où une connexion profonde existait, reliant la spiritualité et l'intimité. En fin de compte, il aborde une vision plus sombre de l'amour, le dépeignant comme un chemin difficile, voire brisé, malgré des éclats de joie exprimés par des hallelujahs chargés d'émotion.
