[Verse 1]
The city sleeps alone
No room tonight
A cooling breeze
My arms outstretched in flight
And hallelujah oh I am alive
And I wonder why

[Verse 2]
The woman weeps
Her body clings to mine
Hands folded
Prayers we are intertwined
And hallelujah oh I am alive
And I wonder why, why

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah I wonder
Oo Oo
So when your face hits the pavement
Can you fake it then
Blood spilling over you chin
You never wanted it to end like this
I promise I'm better, I'll be better
Give me one last chance

[Chorus]
And hallelujah oh I am alive
Yeah and I don't know why, why
No I don't know

Oh hallelujah
Oh hallelujah
Hallelujah
I'm alive
Hallelujah
I don't have to wonder why
Hallelujah
I'm alive
Hallelujah
I don't have to wonder
I don't have to wonder
Oo
