I remember how we met, But your name I forget. Like the door, that I have kept unopened. I remember it was wet, And the swelter, And the sweat, And the shelter of the bed... we were cloaked in.
You were stroking me like a pet, But you didn't own me yet. And the tape in the cassette deck was choking... Spat out a broken Hallelujah.
But I've seen the way the Earth throws its aces with a curve. You were waiting for the words to come to ya… Just to say that you prefer To be lonely, To be cursed, And to do the very worst you can do.
Yeh, I remember you like a verse, That I didn’t want to learn I just slipped into your eye, And I knew ya… Now the thought of you is burned on my body from the first time you did rewind that line from “Hallelujah”, The original Leonard Cohen version.
Well, I wish that I never met you the day you said, “I have a room, I have music to play, I have a room, Let me show you the way…” I wish that I’d never come!
But now that I have, I would do it again And I would forget , Like I piss on a grave I would forget, Like I piss on a grave, Are the words as they came to my toungue Hallelujah, Hallelujah And the sky was so much bluer. Hallelujah, Hallelujah And the world was so much newer. He said I have a room, top of the stair I have a room with a view. I know we all have a cross that we bare, And I’d like to show it to you!
And you left me in the light And you met me in the light, And we only had a night between the two. You were waiting for the worst... You were listening for a curse… But the only thing I heard was Hallelu...
Hallelujah, Hallelujah. And the sky was so much bluer. Hallelujah, Hallelujah. And the world was so much newer. You said I have a room, top of the stair I have a room with a view. I know we all have a cross that we bare, And I’d like to give it to you!
And I won’t forget how the sky was set So I have a place to go back to. La-la-la, I will have you yet. I’ll carry you there if I have to.
And I won’t forget, no, I won’t ,no I won’t forget, no, I won’t, no I won’t forget, no, I won’t, no I won’t forget, no, I… won’t .. won’t Woh-oh-oh-Woh-oh-oh-oh… First Love!
