I remember how we metnBut your name I forgetnLike the door that I have kept unopenednnI remember it was wetnAnd the swelt and the sweatnAnd the shelter of the bed we cloaked innnYou were stroking me like a petnBut you didn't own me yetnAnd the tape in the cassette deck was chokingnSpat out a broken hallelujahnnBut I've seen the way the earthnThrows its aces with a curvenYou were waiting for the wordsnTo come to yer.nnJust to say that you prefer to be lonelynTo be cursednAnd to do the very worst you can do.nnYeah I remember you like a versenThat I didn't want to learnnI just looked into your eyesnAnd I knew yer.nnNow the thought of you is burntnOn my body from the first time you did rewind that linenFrom Hallelujah.nThe original Leonard Cohen version.nnWell I wish that I never met you that daynYou said I have a room, I have music to playnI have a room let me show you the waynI wish that I'd never comennBut now that I have, I would do it againnAnd I would forget that I'd piss on a gravennI would forget that I'd piss on a gravenAnd the words as they came to my tongue werennhallelujah. Hallelujah!nAnd the sky was so much bluernHallelujah! Hallelujah!nAnd the world was so much newer.nnYou said I have a roomnAt the top of the stairsnI have a room with a viewnI know we all have a cross that we bearnAnd I'd like to show it to you.nnAnd you left me in the lightnAnd you met me in the lightnAnd we only had a night between the two.nnYou were waiting for the worstnYou were listening for a cursenBut the only thing I heard was hallelujah.nnHallelujah! Hallelujah!nAnd the sky was so much bluernHallelujah! Hallelujah!nAnd the world was so much newer.nnyou said I have a roomnAt the top of the stairs.nI have a room with a view.nI know we all have a cross that we bearnAnd I'd like to give it to you.nnAnd I won't forget how the sky was setnI said I have a place to go back to.nLa La La I will have you yetnI will carry you there if I have to.nnNo I won't forget no I won't.nNo I won't forget no I won'tnNo I won't forget no I won'tnNo I won't forget no.nnWhoa. Whoa. Whoa. W-o-o-o-ah.nFirst love.
