Ed Sheeran - Supermarket Flowers Lyrics
[Verse 1]I took the supermarket flowers from the windowsill,Threw 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.[Pre-Chorus]Oh I'm in pieces it's tearing me up but I knowA heart that's broke is a heart that's been loved[Chorus]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,He'll say, "Hallelujah, you're home."[Verse 2]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 knowA life with love is a life that's been lived[Chorus]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,He'll say, "Hallelujah, you're home."[Outro]Hallelujah, you were an angel in the shape of my mum,You got to see the person that I have become,Spread your wings, and I know that when God took you back,He said, "Hallelujah, you're home."
