Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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"
[Verse 3]
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
Yeah, I remember you like a verse
That I didn't want to learn
I just looked into your eyes
And I knew ya
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
Well, I wish that I'd 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'd piss on a grave
I would forget like I'd piss on a grave
How the words as they came to my tongue
[Verse 6]
Were "Hallelujah, hallelujah"
And the sky was so much bluer
"Hallelujah, hallelujah"
And the world was so much newer
[Verse 7]
You said, "I have a room at the top of the stairs
I have a room with a view
I know we all have a cross that we bear
And I'd like to show it to you"
[Verse 8]
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'"
[Verse 9]
"Hallelujah, hallelujah"
And the sky was so much bluer
"Hallelujah, hallelujah"
And the world was so much newer
[Verse 10]
You said, "I have a room, top of the stairs
I have a room with a view
I know we all have a cross that we bear
And I'd like to give it to you"
[Verse 11]
And I won't forget how the sky was set
You said "I have a place to go back to
La-la-la, I will have you yet
I will carry you there if I have to"
[Verse 12]
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, whoa
Whoa-whoa
First love
