Hallelujah Lyrics

somehow everything's gonna fall right into place
if we only had a way to make it all fall faster everyday
if only time flew like a dove
we gotta make it fly faster than I'm falling in love

this time we're not giving up
let's make it last forever
screaming "hallelujah"
we'll make it last forever

holding onto patience, wearing thin
I can't force these eyes to see the end
if only time flew like a dove
we could watch it fly and just keep looking on

this time we're not giving up
let's make it last forever
screaming "hallelujah"
we'll make it last forever

and we've got time on our hands
and we've got, got nothing but time on our hands
got nothing but, got nothing but
got nothing but time on our hands

this time we're not giving up
oh, let's make it last forever
screaming "hallelujah"
"hallelujah"
"hallelujah"

I think this song is about how two people aren't giving up on each other. And they're going to make it through anything. I love Paramore. <3

to me, this is just a song about great times. those times that you want to last forever.

I think its about time going so slow while we're in our rough patches. "If only time flew like a dove" is most likely saying like 'why cant we get out of these bad times?why cant our time in bad places go by faster?' she cant force her eyes to see the end of her funk. she's "screaming hallelujah" in the chorus because maybe she got out of it.

This new version on riot is so clean and polished, a lot better then the one I'd heard before. The entire cd is fantastic.

This song, to me, perfectly describes me and my boyfriend. our parents won't let us date because they don't like each other. Both of our families treat us like we don't matter. So my boyfriend is determined that one day we'll be out of here and he's going to take us away from here. So the line "somehow everything's gonna fall right into place if we only had a way to make it all fall faster everyday if only time flew like a dove we gotta make it fly faster than I'm falling in love" this explains how we have to wait to be together finally and we wish time would pass faster than how quickly we're falling in love. But that's only how the song applies to my life lol. I think it can mean lots of different things depending on the person listening to it.

i think its about how you wait and wait for somethign great to happen and when ti does its even better then you thought it was gunna be dispite all of the hard work.

i love the song it sends chills up my spine

Cover art for Hallelujah lyrics by Paramore

This is probably wrong, but this is how I see this song. I think that this song is about hope and thinking really positively about things. It's maybe convincing herself that she needs to be patient, and it's about maybe how she is falling in love too fast, but she doesn't mind because she wants it to last. She has fallen fast and hard for someone and she knows that something good will happen, even though she can't see for sure that it will. No matter what happens, things are going to be alright. When she gets what she wants in the end, she knows that it will be great and everyhting that she could wish for. I love this song so much, it really cheers me up and helps me look on the brighter side of things.

I don't think you're wrong. That's exactly what I was going to say, except I couldn't have said it better than you did. Thanks for writing that.

there are no "wrong" responses to songs. Everyone interprets music in their own way. Of course, the artist writes songs based on their own personal experiences etc., but everyone interprets it in their own way and each interpretation is beautiful, just like yours. :)
