Hallelujah Lyrics - Singles - The Narrative

You were only giving me the time of day 

And it was hard for me to keep that smile straight 

In the corner of the bar around the way from me 

But I knew what would become of us that night 

Everybody else was judging through the corners of their eyes 

And I could hardly tell you any single truth 

Or move 

And hallelujah 

Me and all my friends 

Waiting for the sun 

To make us new again 

Or finally burn up 

And bring us to our end 

We are not all quite as blessed as we may seem 

I've got these looks but I can't keep my body clean 

But I know that I can use my tongue to speak and sing 

Hallelujah 

Me and all my friends 

Waiting for the sun 

To bring us to our end 

Or finally burn up 

And make us free again 

And hallelujah 

I am free again 

And praise the good old lord 

But do not wait for him 

'cause he won't save your soul 

Or clean it of its sins 

So let's soak in them 

Hallelujah 

Me and all my friends 

Waiting for the sun 

To make us new again 

Or finally burn up 

And bring us to our end
