(2009/453) Maybe there’s a God above


1. Maybee don't. E é no interstício dessa dobra, nesse vão desconcertante, entre deixar-se e reter-se, entre retesar o arco e pousar a mão, que, no fundo, sem que ninguém veja, também eu, e provavelmente pela razão nua e crua dessa letra crua e nua, balbucie, gema, trema e sofra meu próprio hallelujah... Tão cético, e sofrer tanto... Não é tanto o hallelujah do culto, mas o da dor. It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah. E, então, se terá sabido tudo.






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
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 her kitchen chair
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'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
and love is not a victory march
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?
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

Well maybe there's a God above
but all I've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
it's not somebody who've 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
