'Hallelujah Here She Comes' song lyrics by U2

"Hallelujah Here She Comes," a B-side to U2's "Desire," explores complex emotional themes, intertwining desire, redemption, and inner conflict. 

The repeated phrase, "Hallelujah here she comes," positions the woman at the heart of the song as a figure who represents both temptation and salvation. Her arrival is elevated with a religious undertone, where "hallelujah" conveys awe and reverence, blending the sacred with the secular. 

The imagery in "Hallelujah Here She Comes" captures the singer's intense, almost helpless infatuation, as he finds himself utterly consumed by desire for the woman at the center of the song. Her allure is magnetic, and the line "I see you're dressed in black, I guess I'm not coming back" suggests he knows he's headed toward something he really wants. 

'Hallelujah Here She Comes' song lyrics by U2 

I see you’re dressed to kill
I know I can’t wait until
Hallelujah here she comes

I see you’re dressed in black
I guess I’m not coming back
Hallelujah here she comes

Born and raised
On the wrong side of town
You get so high
That you can’t come down

Yeah

I see the road is rough
You know I’m not giving up
Hallelujah here she comes

I know where the lady goes
I know she got a ring on her toes
Hallelujah here she comes

Born and raised
On the wrong side of town
You get so high
That you can’t come down

I’m going higher, higher, higher
High on, high on, high on love
High on, high on, high on love
High on, high on, high on love
I’m gonna be there
When that light’s gonna shine
I’m gonna be there
When her heart comes next to mine
I’m gonna be…
Here she comes
Yeah here she comes

I see you’re dressed to kill
I know I can’t wait until
Hallelujah here she comes

I see you’re dressed in black
I guess I’m not coming back
Hallelujah here she comes

Born and raised
In the wrong side of town
You get so high
You can’t come down

I’m gonna be there
High on, high on, high on love
Gonna get high on, high on, high on love
(Gonna get) high on, high on, high on love
(Gonna get) high on, high on, high on love
High on, high on, high on love
High on, high on, high on love
High on, high on, high on love
High on, high on, high on love

I’m gonna be there
When that light’s gonna shine
I’m gonna be there
When her heart is next to mine
I’m gonna be there

Be there
When Hallelujah…here she comes
Here she comes…
Here she comes…
Here she comes…
Here she comes…
Here she comes…
Oh Here she comes…
Here she comes…
Oh Here she comes…
Here she comes…
Woo sing it


High on, high on, high on love
High on, high on, high on love
