Lyrics

[Verse 1]

We might kiss when we are alone

When nobody's watchin', we might take it home

We might make out when nobody's there

It's not that we're scared, it's just that it's delicate

[Verse 2]

So why do you fill my sorrows with the words you borrowed

From the only place you've known?

And why do you sing Hallelujah

If it means nothin' to ya?

Why do you sing with me at all?

[Verse 3]

We might live like never before

When there's nothin' to give

Well, how can we ask for more?

We might make love in some sacred place

The look on your face is delicate

[Verse 4]

So why do you fill my sorrows with the words you borrowed

From the only place that you've known?

And why do you sing Hallelujah

If it means nothin' to ya?

Why do you sing with me at all?

[Verse 5]

Why do you fill my sorrows with the words you borrowed

From the only place that you've known?

Why do you sing Hallelujah

If it means nothin' to ya?

Why do you sing with me at all?
