Song lyrics
We might kiss 
when we are alone 
when nobody’s watchin’ 
we might take it home 

we might make out 
when nobody's there 
it's not that we're scared 
it's just that it's delicate 

so why'd ya fill my sorrow 
with the words you borrow 
from the only place you've known 
why'd ya sing hallelujah 
if it means nothin’ to ya 
why'd ya sing with me at all? 

we might live 
like never before 
when there's nothin’ to give 
well, how can we ask for more? 

we might make love 
in some sacred place 
that look on your face 
is delicate 

so why'd ya fill my sorrow 
with the words you borrowed 
from the only place that you've known 
why'd ya sing hallelujah 
if it means nothin’ to ya 
why'd ya sing with me at all? 

so why'd ya fill my sorrow 
with the words you borrow 
from the only place that you've known 
and why'd ya sing hallelujah 
if it means nothin’ to ya 
why'd ya sing with me at all?

I heard this song first in HMV and it had me almost in tears. I have been really skint for ages so I couldnt buy but my amazing friend bought it for me as a present and I haven't stopped listening to it since.

My friend sent me this song last night. I'm getting the album for christmas but in the meantime, I'm listening to this song. It is a good song, not one of my favourites but nevertheless a good song.
