HAIM - Hallelujah Lyrics






I met two angels but they were in disguise
Took one look to realize
Tell 'em anything and they will sympathize
These arms hold me tight
Old fears, helped to ease them in my mind
New tears say that they will dry in time

Why me? How'd I get this hallelujah?
Hallelujah

Laughing together like our thoughts are harmonized
Been that way since '95
Give me direction when it is hard to fight
Three roads, one light
Now and then I can lean my back to yours
Travelin' like our feet don't touch the floor

Why me? How'd I get this hallelujah?
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Why me? How'd I get this hallelujah?

I had a best friend but she has come to pass
One I wish I could see now
You always remind me that memories will last
These arms reach out
You were there to protect me like a shield
Long hair running with me through the field
Everywhere you've been with me all along

Why me? How'd I get this hallelujah?
Why me? How'd I get this hallelujah?
Why me? How'd I get this hallelujah?
Hallelujah

  2. t.... y....

    This is the modern day "Kathy's song"
    Somewhere, maybe in some other realm, Eva Cassidy is smiling🙏❤

  3. A.... G....

    There is no band on earth that can do songs that sound like Prince, Springsteen, Pink Floyd, Tom Petty, Lou Reed, Emylou Harris etc. with such grace and conviction. Haim is the best band performing today. No discussion.

  4. p.... s....

    yes it does sound like landslide.....its still gorgeous

  5. V.... T....

    Brilliant

  6. G.... D....

    Beautiful song, beautiful video.

  7. j.... b....

    hallelujah superb soulmade

  8. B.... D....

    That guitar riff is Simon Garfunkel - Kathy's song right?

  9. J.... B....

    I love this song so much. It brings me from a 14 down to a 2 in a matter of seconds. Such a wonderful arrangement.

  10. C.... C....

    Nothing but a masterpiece 💙🙌🏿

  11. S.... A....

    Another classic haim tune xxx

  12. k.... S....

    Fun fact: "Hallelu" means praise in hebrew, "Jah" is a hebrew-jewish name (one of many) for God.

  13. F.... B....

    Puts me to tears every time

  14. E.... p....

    Till now you sounded like HAIM...
    Now you sound like Fleetwood Mac in the Seventies...
    Is this a step back or foreward ?!
    Up or down ?!
    To the right or to the left ?!

    Just follow a good advice
    from Fleetwood Mac and continue to "Go your own Way" ......after all you must had been working hard enough to create a style of your own...

    Anyway...

    Happy new year from Frankfurt in
    Germany !!!

    And by the way: do you plan to perform in Germany too in the near future ?
    If not the big summer festivals
    like "Rock am Ring" the "Wacken" or the "Loreley Open Air" maybe a smaller location like the "Batschkapp" in Frankfurt.....

    E.... p....

    More like Peter , Paul and Mary or Joan Baez than Fleetwood Mac . This is closer to Folk rock than Soft rock .

  15. T.... c....

    🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷😍😍😍

  16. m.... s....

    I love this

  17. L.... S....

    Style and class once again.

  18. J.... E....

    Great song, better nipples.

  19. m.... ....

    this sounds so much like fleetwood mac

  20. N.... L....

    I’m sorry but they show of us, nice tits

  21. R.... M....

    Lovely guitar work reminiscent of Paul Simon. Haim are a class act, swoon.

  22. g.... ....

    A great contribution to positive planetary vibes. Very nice. Harmonising the harmony, hallelujah :)

  23. R.... D....

    🕊💖🙏🏼

  24. C.... A....

    Is it weird that they make me want to cry? How can people make such good music?! ❤❤❤❤

  25. S.... m....

    Damn it Haim, you've made me cry a river listening to this. Incredibly touching and heartbreakingly beautiful. Wow! Just....Wow!!!

  26. O.... S....

    One of the best videos I've ever seen. Would say it's the best but I'm in a honeymoon period with it. Hey Paul.

  27. P.... d....

    Yup.. That's the video in which you'd want to show your tits

  28. S.... F....

    I feel like this song may have been inspired by Dan Fogelberg's "Leader Of The Band". I fully approve of this as "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery"-- Oscar Wilde. Much love. Love you HAIM.

  29. P.... A....

    🙏👸👸👸🙏💘😎⚔✈🏝🙏

  30. J.... N....

    Holy shit. What a gorgeous song & video. Jaw dropped in all the best ways.

    In answer to your question, We, Angels in disguise,
    gave it too you because you worked hard, made great Beauty, healing music, and so deserve it.
    one quick note, we can see why you shave your armpits, yet you do not have to, to please a Patriarchy that is on the way out.

  33. z.... ....

    i can't stand it when baby haim sings. i hate her voice.

  34. o.... g....

    Abraham.

  35. J.... M....

    I love Haim

  36. M.... M....

    One of the most beautiful songs, ever? I mean damn

  37. A.... B....

    Pretty song, but first couple of watches I found Danielle's nipples distracting.

  38. W.... B....

    Somebody please buy some of their music so they can afford some bras.

  39. E.... R....

    Mientras que los demás prefieren Bad Guy de Bilie Eilish, yo prefiero escuchar esto mil veces.

  40. b.... p....

    Stunning! Perfect! Beautiful!

  41. T.... K....

    This makes me cry so hard. omg Life is so precious

  42. J.... B....

    Parts of this sound a bit like Paul Simon's "April, Come She Will." Did anyone else here that?

    J.... B....

    yeh , first thing i thought when i heard it. thought it was sampled tbh

  43. c.... ....

    Is it just me or is this a blatant rip off of Jake Bugg Simple as this....

    c.... ....

    If you consider "folksy guitar melody" to be a blatant rip off lol.

  44. C.... A....

    This is that rarity of a song in that it just gets better the more I listen to it. Deep and profound, this is special.

  45. i.... w....

    i just saw they're wearing each others clothe

  46. k.... ....

    Getting serious Joni and Stevie vibes. Love it 💕

  47. p.... p....

    hmmm.....haim wrote a legend song

  48. K.... R....

    Feels very Jewel like to me

  49. D.... J....

    Beautiful song!

  50. T.... ....

    There's something very Dixie Chicks about this song and there's nothing wrong with that.

  51. A.... V....

    Beautiful

  52. R.... W....

    Absolutely brilliant. Love this. Love your music. Thank you.

  53. i.... ....

  56. S.... H....

    Danielle is hot!

  57. S.... N....

    tear jerker!

  58. J.... P....

    3:12 of hallelujah...great song

  59. L.... S....

    100% ripped off 'Kathy's Song' by Simon & Garfunkel

  60. s.... ....

    Possibly the best song of 2019

  61. M.... R....

    I really like this song but i don't understand the topic. Can someone explain me what is the sotory on this song?

    M.... R....

    The song is about platonic, all-consuming, unconditional love. The love you have for family, for friends. The love shared between siblings, between best friends and how it can feel like sometimes a blessing you never thought you deserved. The sisters are there for each other through all their rough times (Danielle's boyfriend had cancer, Este's diabetic issues, Alana lost her best friend in a car accident a few years ago) and their mutual love and support keeps each other strong.

    M.... R....

    @Jurassicbarkpark thaks! I love more this song now ✨

  62. A.... S....

    I need a 10 minutes version of this

  63. T.... ....

    Jakie to jest PIĘKNE...

  64. G.... Y....

    Inspirational <3 Love the talent of these young ladies, Thank you <3

  65. O.... R....

    so sorry for your loss, such a beautiful way to remember that your memories will last x

  66. W.... S....

    Nipples.

  67. G.... G....

    Okay I just started listening to them AND IM IN LOVE

  68. A.... F....

    Christmas number one?

  69. A.... G....

    Reminds me of Razorlight’s America, which sounds different mostly. Still.

  70. S.... ....

    makes me want to listen to landslide

  71. A.... S....

    Song of the year for me. Fittingly released on my birthday.

  72. s.... ....

    https://youtu.be/fXZyDtzDJMY. Kathy'sSong same opening but there are only 13 notes for song writers to work with.

  73. T.... T....

    It took me a few time to realize, but they wear each other’s clothes throughout the song - maybe signifying their bond and closeness. This song really does make me feel more grateful for what I have now and to cherish it. This song has changed my life 😭

  74. h.... ....

    Such a beautiful song!

  75. A.... C....

    If just one person reads this, it'll honestly make my day. I'm an artist from Jersey & I know people write this all the time but I believe I'll be the one you'll be happy you listened to. If one person could give this a thumbs up, you'll be one step closer to helping a man's dreams come true. I swear I don't suck and you won't be disappointed. Just give me one chance and 3 minutes of your time. Thank you

  76. D.... J....

    Best music video

  77. T.... M....

    Did Danielle make a cameo video with Vampire Weekend? "The Life" or something like that? Cool.

  78. a.... h....

    👍 beautiful

  79. W.... B....

    Wow. I'm a 55 year old rocker. Thought I'd heard it all...this left me in tears. Sublimely beautiful song..and that lyric. Gosh...

  80. V.... C....

    Any meaning behind Danielle and Este swapping clothes??

  81. D.... D....

    Awe! They almost give praise to God. Almost. Shucks. Hope they do one day <3

  82. M.... ....

    This song is mapped from “Crayon Angels” by Judee Sill

  83. D.... S....

    Whats the meaning or story behind this music please?

    D.... S....

    Being thankful that they have sisters to support them through difficult times.
    The eldest sister is diabetic
    The middle sisters partner recently had treatment for cancer
    The youngest sister lost her best friend in a car accident

  84. R.... C....

    So.. why are they all without bras?

  85. D.... T....

    I love the acoustics in this mix! So beautiful, raw, and real!

  86. A.... H....

    Have you noticed that Este and Danielle swap clothes back and forth? Brilliant song, superb video

  87. N.... T....

    I have to say I dont usually bother commenting on Youtube....but I couldn't help my self on this video. This is a beautiful song....so how could you girls except the whole sexualisation of yourselves in this video. FFS, braless nipple shots to start the vid (and more).....come one girls....your have a serious talent....youre more than a fap magnet. You dont need wankers....

  88. W.... ....

    This song more than any other is my proof that HAIM is truly special. Love the way their voices weave in and out of each other and Este's soaring notes. <3 Minimalist and powerful.

  89. t.... t....

    I think we're all staring at them ;o

  90. A.... U....

    The temperature was cold this day, bras are overrated. Beside inapropriate mention its a wonderful song, and I love tities so...👍

  91. A.... H....

    Wow, this is superb

  92. A.... J....

    Interesting how so many comments about how Haim is so original and different than any other band. Yet so many comparisons made to Fleetwood Mac, Dan Fogelberg, Simon and Garfunkel etc. Not to mention all the spelling errors. It is a great song but there is so much more to come on their next album you will be saying the same things about other songs on the new and future releases, wait and see.

  93. G.... D....

    HAIM's just getting better and better. And this song is the BEST song they've produced so far.

  94. l.... ....

    WoW!!! I thought I liked Haim before... Now I am enthralled!!!

  95. S.... O....

    Love this 👌 👌

  96. k.... p....

    This was just absolutely beautiful ❤️

  97. C.... O....

    alana can't stop making me cry

  98. M.... G....

    Whether the nipples on top were absolutely necessary to perform the song titled "Hallelujah"?
