Lyrics Ryan Adams – Hallelujah
Text:
I’ve been a desperate man
I’ve been sheltered by a lonely dream
There’s a stranger here
Looking back above the bathroom sink
Every night I throw you out
Leave you stranded on the boulevard
You know that I use you up
I used you like I used ’em all
Well the band’s singing hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
You’re all gone. Yeah, you’re all gone.
Leave you stranded on the boulevard
You know that I use you up
I used you like I used ’em all
Well the band’s singing hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
You’re all gone. Yeah, you’re all gone.
If I could have a simple love
How would it feel and what would it mean?
I’d only trade you away
For Mary Magdalene
Oh, it wouldn’t make me insane (a saint ?)
And it would make me the king
And I wouldn’t have to wait
Wait around for the real thing
Well the band’s singing hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
You’re all gone. Yeah, you’re all gone.
Hallelujah
You’re all gone. Oh yeah, yeah, hey.
