Crucifix around your neck
You can forget all your regrets
From your past life, you don't believe in
In the next life, you don't believe in
Did you read the text?
Written out in Letter set
God forgives, Just what you needed
Someone else to do it first.
Singing hallelujah
Thinking of Cohen
Thinking of anything but singing hallelujah
Singing hallelujah
Thinking of Cohen
Thinking of anything but singing hallelujah
Maybe a pilgrimage or sacrament will
Cleanse the soul
Palimpsest the actions
Written in the stone
Of the roadside Mary
At the crossroads
Look back from where she came
Crying and unmoving
Moved and yet unchanged
(and she's singing)
Singing hallelujah
Thinking of Cohen
Thinking of anything but singing hallelujah
Singing hallelujah
Thinking of Cohen
Thinking of anything but singing hallelujah
Something in the chorus
The voices in the chord
Stars out in the firmament
Shining light onto your contours
And in the shadows silhouette
Is the man that always is
And always will be
A part of you
(and he's singing)
Singing hallelujah
Thinking of Cohen
Thinking of anything but singing hallelujah
Singing hallelujah
Thinking of Cohen
Thinking of anything but singing hallelujah
Saint Dismas let down from the cross
Wonders around forgiven, a sinner and still lost
Walks right out of Jerusalem
With the ropes around his hands
Takes what life can give him
He has taken all he can
Hallelujah (hallelujah)
Hallelujah (hallelujah)
Hallelujah (hallelujah)
Hallelu- Hallelujah (hallelujah)
Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Hallelujah
