Thank-you so much,,I've always loved that song but never knew the lyrics.

Now that I know them i don't understand them. I'll look into this or would enjoy your interpretation.
[i looked into it a little -

Hallelujah By Leonard Cohen – Meanings And Thoughts | Its All About All


Lyrics
Now 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?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
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 you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light
In every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Thanks. One of my favorite songs.

Although you have to love it when Leonard Cohen sings his own song, K.D. Lang is the singer that really crushes Hallelujah.

This is the K.D. Lang performance that thrills me. Watch the whole thing.

I agree, KD Lang is the absolute best singing this song. Leonard Cohen of course is very interesting also, just a little quirky!
