Prefab Sprout - Hallelujah lyrics
Hallelujah
 There are all kinds of things, I could ask you if I chose
 But I don't, do I dear, good intentions don't survive here
 No, instead my requests tend to be dumb as hell
 Move in close, closer still, I hear the songs of Georgie Gershwin
 I swear at you 'cause I believe that sweet talk like candy rots teeth, so
 No Hallelujahs, no Hallelujahs or gifted voices
 To sing your praises I'd be walking on wheels
 No whoops or war crys, no whoops or war crys or caramias
 All translations will read, 'Marry me now'
 Prefab Sprout - Hallelujah - http://motolyrics.com/prefab-sprout/hallelujah-lyrics.html
 Well, I sing to express my belief that sweet talk like candy rots teeth, so
 With his hand on his heart, it's a posing place
 While draining the mystery from your face
 He admits all he's chasing is the chase
 But you won't let him run
 You make him suffer for all he's gone done
 He'll still be hurting when the kingdom comes
 Move in close till you see, he only wants what he can't have
 So when he gets it he's as good as bad
 Move in close, closer still, I hear the songs of Georgie Gershwin
 Oh, Hallelujah, how I'm walking on wheels
