Ingo's Hallelujah

I've heard you in the distant past
A thunder made and born to last
But who now really knows the name I've heard?
It sounds like this
A thunder's kiss
A roaring wave, a mighty lift
The drummer's soul, he thunders Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Your wings were strong, you held the sky
You smiled at us and took to fly
The thousands below cried their love to you
Yet there was something none could see
A shadow within, you tried to flee
And still your hand, it drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Shadows you'd not seen before
They held you down and locked the door
In the strife, they reached out and tried to hold you
Yet in the war they couldn't fight
The shadows stole away all your light
In a cold and in a shattered Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was an era of purest gold
An age of light in times of old
But you saw it fall away before you
I remember when I had no clue
The years gone by, I cried for you
And every song I gave said Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there are wings above
And all the strangest kinds of love
It's how I can say Ingo, I love you
And though I'll not know your fight,
It's everything that came to light
I will call and I will sing you, my Ingo

My Ingo, my Ingo
My Ingo, my Ingo

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
