Irish Basement

1,000 Hallelujahs

Irish Basement


Letting go is never easy
Thought I'd finally found my way
Saw you in the supermarket

And went for coffee at Blue Jay

I wanna be the clever one
I wanna make you laugh
I wanna see the sunshine dance above us on our backs

But you don't want that
You don't want that

Been so long since I last saw you
Milling around pillar to post
Whisper 1, 000 Hallelujahs
Hiding from a holy ghost

I don't wanna be the broken one
Who always makes mistakes
I wanna be the canopy above you when it rains

But you don't want that
You don't want that

I wanna be the clever one
I wanna make you laugh
I wanna see the sunshine dance above us on our backs
I don't wanna be the broken one
Who always makes mistakes
I wanna be the canopy above you when it rains

But you don't want that
You don't want that
You don't want that
Want that, want that
You don't want that
