I remember how we met, but your name I forget, like the door that I have kept unopened.
You were stroking me like a pet, but you didn’t own me yet, and the tape in the cassette deck was choking.
Spat out a broken hallelujah! But I’ve seen the way the earth, throws its aces with a curve.
You were waiting for the words to come to yah, Just to say that you prefer to be lonely, to be cursed, and to do the very worst you can do.
Yeah I remember you like a verse, that I didn’t want to learn, I just looked into your eyes, and I knew ya!
Now the thought of you is burnt, on my body from the first time, you did rewind that line from Hallelujah. The original Leonard Cohen version.
Well I wish I never met you that day, You said I have a room and music to play, I have a room let me show you the way, I wish that I’d never come .
But now that I have, I would do it again, and the words, as they came to my tongue were hallelujah.
Hallelujah! And the sky was so much bluer, Hallelujah! And the world was so much newer.
You said I have a room at the top of the stairs, I have a room with a view, I know we all have a cross that we bear, and I’d like to show it to you.
