Hallelujah - soul version

Michael McDonald

Baby, I have been here before

I've seen this room,

I've walked this floor

I used to live alone

before I knew you

And I've seen your flag

on the marble arch

You know love's not some kind of

victory march

No, it's cold and it's serene

and broken, Hallelujah

Hallelujah,

Hallelujah

Hallelujah,

Hallelujah

There was a time you let me know

What's really going on below

But now you'll never show me that

do you?

But remember when

I moved in you

And this holy dove

was moving too

And every breath we drew

was Hallelujah

Hallelujah,

Hallelujah

Hallelujah,

Hallelujah,

Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above

But all I've ever learned from love

Was how to shoot at someone

who outdrew you

Well, it's not some complaint

that you hear tonight

Not just some fool

who thinks he's seen the light

No, it's cold and it's serene,

and it's broken, Hallelujah

Hallelujah,

Hallelujah

Hallelujah,

Hallelujah,

Hallelujah
