I took the supermarket flowers
from the windowsill
I 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, mom, 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
He’ll say, "Hallelujah, you’re home"
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
And 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
When God takes you back
He’ll say, "Hallelujah, you’re home"
Hallelujah, you’re home
Hallelujah
You were an angel in the shape of my mum
You got to see the person I have become
Spread your wings and I know
That when God took you back
he said, "Hallelujah, you’re home"

Supermarket Flowers Lyrics English
I took the supermarket flowers

"Don’t you cry when you’re down"
But, mom, 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
