I took the supermarket flowers from the window sill
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 know
А 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:
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
Pre-Chorus:
I hope that I see the world as you did cause I know
А 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
Bridge:
Chorus:
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
