Hallelujah - Ed Sheeran & New Hope Gospel Choir - New York 22/05/24

Same for you tonight, the memories that you've made to these songs. I hope that the nostalgia has come back, I hope it was good nostalgia, I hope you laughed, I hope you cried, I hope you had fun with your friends. Big journeys, I know there's lots of people that finally wrote. And yeah, thank you for supporting this this album over the last 10 years and I hope you get home safe and I will see you down the road somewhere. I chose this song because at the end of Fire Love is the end of the album and the last words of the song are my family rise to their feet sing hallelujah and you know I've played this song maybe 14 years ago and haven't played it since and it feels like a good end to the show. You don't really care for music, do you? It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth. Minor fall, a major lift. Baffled king composing Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Your faith was strong but you needed proof. You saw her bathing on the roof. Beauty in the moonlight over you. She tied you to a kitchen chair. She broke your throne and cut your hair. From your lips she drew the line. Hallelujah. Baby I've been here before. I've seen this room and I've walked this floor. You know I used to live alone before I knew. I've seen your flag in the marble isle. Love is not some victory march. It's a cold and dancing broken Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Maybe there's a God above. All I ever learned from love. How to shoot somebody who loved you, yeah. It's not a cry that you hear at night. It's not somebody who sinned. It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah. Hallelujah. There was a time when you let me know. What's really going on below. Now you never show that to me, dear. Hallelujah. Thank you so much, Brooklyn.
