Isn't the "Hallelujah" song about what happened between King David and Bathsheba? That's what I think, but I've heard that it's about love that's gone stale.

Partly. It's also mentions Samson and Delilah. I wouldn't say it's "about" the biblical characters, because I don't think that's the point of the song. Biblical romance isn't the focus of it, at least not to me.
I probably shouldn't use the word "biblical" either, because Leonard Cohen is Jewish and his references are from the Torah, though he does mention Christ in other songs.

Well, it's a good song anyway.
