Hallelujah – Leonard Cohen

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music, do you?
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor falls, the major lifts
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew her
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Is how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
And it's not a cry that you're hear tonight
It's not a pilgrim who has seen the Light
it's a cold and it's a very broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Instrumental – Flügelhorn

Wenn es am Ende doch nicht reicht
Das Ego nicht der Liebe weicht
Der Abgrund tief der Aufprall unabwendbar
So bleiben unsrer Menschlichkeit
Im wilden Toben durch die Zeit
Vier Silben eingewoben: Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
