Hallelujah For A Women's Love

Once when I cried for freedom For freedoms ancient sleep I lay on my bed in my kingdom Feeling sad so sad and bleak. Once when I laughed, the world laughed too And so my one true love did you; Once when my heart was a ball and chain, Love—saved my soul from the pain. Once when the sun was cold, And the moon was warm. "I listened to those thoughts..? " Echoing in my soul! And sang: Hallelujah Hey, hey, hallelujah Hey, hey, hallelujah Once when all hope seemed a pitiless dream I sat by your side and prayed. And like Job, I vented my anger at the earth For giving me eyes life staid. {In this shadows burning, shade! } But you touched my soul With your angel-wingtips And alter bread your body, Across my swollen lips! As the suns and moons were shed, Oh then I knew for sure, I wasn't dead. As angels wailed and fled I gave thanks to a women's bed. Hallelujah Hey, hey, hallelujah Hey, hey, hallelujah For a women's love is a shapely thing! That'll make you sing Hallelujah Hey, hey, hallelujah
