Hallelujah Lyrics

Smiling sweetly said she made you smoke your cigs all outside
This could be your last time, this would be your last time now
What’s a few if the hotel don’t mind

Remember how her eyes would shine
They made you come home on time
What’s the plan for tonight calling just to say hi love
How about just us tonight

Oh and oh and oh her eyes always fixing to tell me
Our love is gorgeous
While she would hum so softly

Hallelujah

And we would take those walks at night
And we would dance there in the kitchen till we couldn’t catch our breath

Blood collects and clots
The color creeps from carpet to tile
When you signed you seemed fine, when you signed you seemed fine
A stiff drink will change a mind

Memories aren’t for keeping, mostly just for leaving behind
They’ll remember alright, we remember alright now
A thousand memories and too much wine

Oh and oh and oh the song she would sing it so sweetly
The drunken stupor
It had you slurring it out loud

Hallelujah

And we would take those walks at night
And we would dance there in the kitchen till we couldn’t catch our breath

Cold limbs, casino carpet, and linoleum tiles
You sleep
Waking up to the choir singing

Hallelujah

Remember how her eyes would shine, they made you come home on time

I'm not sure what this song means. Just guessing, it's just about a guy remembering the goodtimes with his girlfriend. Maybe she passed away, or they broke up, because he's talking in past tense... All I know is this song rules.

Memories aren’t for keeping, mostly just for leaving behind They’ll remember alright, we remember alright now A thousand memories and too much wine

It's about Ian's Grandfather who killed himself remembering his life and his love left behind.

that's depressing.

Definetly has to do with death: Cold limbs, casino carpet, and linoleum tiles You sleep Waking up to the choir singing Hallelujah

These lyrics are a bit off, these come from the book thing in the CD:

Smiling sweetly, said she made you smoke your cigs all outside This'll be your last time This'll be your last time now What's a few if the hotel don't mind Remember how her eyes would shine Made you come home on time

What's the plan for tonight calling just to say hi, love How about just us tonight Oh and oh and oh her eyes always fixing to tell me Our love is gorgeous While she would sing so softly And we would take those walks at night And we would dance there in the kitchen till we couldn't catch our breath

Blood collects and clots The color creeps from carpet to tile When you signed you seemed fine when you signed you seemed fine A stiff drink will change your mind

Memories aren't for keeping mostly just for leaving behind We'll remember alright we remember alright now A thousand memories and too much wine Oh and oh and oh the song she would sing it so sweetly That drunken stupor It had you slurring outloud And we would take those walks at night And we would dance there in the kitchen till we couldn't catch our breath

Cold limbs, casino carpet, and linoleum tiles You sleep, waking up to the choir singing HALLELUJAH

Remember how her eyes would shine, they made you come home on time

"SoozequeD" seems to know the story behind this one. It all makes sense to me. I guess I just assume too many songs are about romantic relationships.
