In the corner of a smoky bar She's singin' Hallelujah All the fools are shoutin' over her She keeps singin' Hallelujah Like blindness, yet I'm seein' into you I know the roles of troubled souls are fadin' out of view Like brightness is flowin' out of you And all the cries will fade and die to listen to your tune So I said, "Keep holdin' on I hear your song, sweetness Don't let them get you wrong I hear your song, sweetness" You know, it don't make sense to me The way they're lookin' through her Velvet sunset beauty queen Feels like I always knew her Your weakness is speakin' straight to me I feel your pain, I feel the same I'm seein' what you see And sleepless, she's cryin' out to me Blurry-eyed, she burns inside And pours the flame on me So I said, "Keep holdin' on I hear your song, sweetness Don't let them get you wrong I hear your song, sweetness" And I said, "Keep holdin' on (keep holdin' on) I hear your song, sweetness (I hear your song, sweetness) Don't let them get you wrong (get you wrong) I hear your song, sweetness" (you know, I hear your song, sweetness)
