Supermarket Flowers - Acoustic

I took the supermarket flowers from the windowsill
Poured the day-old tea from the cup
Packed up the photo album Matthew had made
Memories of a life that's been loved

Took the "Get well soon" cards and stuffed animals
Poured the old ginger beer down the sink
Dad always told me, "Don't you cry when you're down"
But mum, there's a tear every time that I blink

Oh, I'm in pieces, it's tearing me up, but I know
A heart that's broke is a heart that's been loved

So I'll sing Hallelujah
You were an angel in the shape of my mum
When I fell down, you'd be there holding me up
Spread your wings as you go
And when God takes you back, we'll say
"Hallelujah, you're home"

I fluffed the pillows, made the beds, stacked the chairs up
Folded your nightgowns neatly in a case
John said he'd drive then put his hand on my cheek
And wiped a tear from the side of my face

I hope that I see the world as you did, 'cause I know
A life with love is a life that's been lived

So I'll sing Hallelujah
You were an angel in the shape of my mum
When I fell down, you'd be there holding me up
Spread your wings as you go
And when God takes you back, we'll say
"Hallelujah, you're home"

Hallelujah
You were an angel in the shape of my mum
You got to see the person that I've become
Spread your wings as you go
And when God took you back, he said
"Hallelujah, you're home"
