Supermarkets Flowers

[00:10.15] I took the supermarket flowers from the windowsill

[00:14.89] I threw the day old tea from the cup

[00:21.37] Packed up the photo album Matthew had made

[00:26.12] Memories of a life that's been loved

[00:31.37] Took the get well soon cards and stuffed animals

[00:36.37] Poured the old ginger beer down the sink

[00:42.62] Dad always told me, "Don't you cry when you're down"

[00:46.88] But mum, there's a tear every time that I blink

[00:53.37] Oh I'm in pieces, it's tearing me up, but I know

[00:58.90] A heart that's broken is a heart that's been loved

[01:02.62] So I'll sing Hallelujah

[01:06.62] You were an angel in the shape of my mum

[01:12.12] When I fell down you'd be there holding me up

[01:15.87] Spread your wings as you go

[01:18.62] And when God takes you back we'll say Hallelujah

[01:23.87] You're home

[01:35.15] I fluffed the pillows, made the beds, stacked the chairs up

[01:40.38] Folded your nightgowns neatly in a case

[01:46.62] John says he'd drive then put his hand on my cheek

[01:51.38] And wiped a tear from the side of my face

[01:57.37] I hope that I see the world as you did cause I know

[02:02.89] A life with love is a life that's been lived

[02:06.62] So I'll sing Hallelujah

[02:10.62] You were an angel in the shape of my mum

[02:15.86] When I fell down you'd be there holding me up

[02:19.87] Spread your wings as you go

[02:22.65] And when God takes you back we'll say Hallelujah

[02:28.13] You're home

[03:11.88] Hallelujah

[03:14.37] You were an angel in the shape of my mum

[03:19.86] You got to see the person that I have become

[03:23.87] Spread your wings and I know

[03:26.62] That when God took you back, he said Hallelujah you’re home
