Freya Hallelujah Lyrics:
Hallelujah

Hallelujah was recorded by Freya in summer 1999
for the soundtrack to the Danish film Max and was
released as a single in November 1999. This single
contains two versions of the song. Take 1 has all
5 verses. Take 2 has verse 1, 2 and 5. On the FALL
2000 TOUR, Freya performed the song live singing
verses 1, 2, 3 and 5. Only verses 1 and 2 is taken
from the original Cohen song released on Various
Positions in February 1984. Rest of the verses are
taken from later versions of the song made by
Cohen. Copyright by Leonard Cohen, 1984.

I've heard there was a secret chord That David
played, and it pleased the Lord But you don't
really care for music, do you? (Well,) It goes
like this: the fourth, the fifth The minor fall,
(and) the major lift T the baffled king composing
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah

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

Hallelujah

Baby, I've been here before. (I know) I've seen
this room. And I've walked this floor. (You know)
I used to live alone before I knew you. And I've
seen your flag on the marble arch, But love is not
a victory march, I 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 you? (I) 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

(Now) Well maybe there's a God above But all I
ever learned from love (Is) was how to shoot
(someone) somebody who outdrew you. And it's (no
complaint) not a cry that you hear tonight, And
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
