AliceGoesCrazy - Supermarket Flowers

[00:13.454]I took the supermarket flowers from the windowsill

[00:19.207]I threw the day-old tea from the cup

[00:25.459]Packed up the photo album Matthew had made

[00:30.459]Memories of a life that's been loved

[00:36.411]Took the "Get Well Soon" cards and stuffed animals

[00:42.165]Poured the old ginger beer down the sink

[00:48.419]Dad always told me, "Don't you cry when you're down"

[00:53.164]But, mom, there's a tear every time that I blink

[00:59.909]Oh, I'm in pieces. It's tearing me up but I know

[01:05.410]A heart that's broke is a heart that's been loved

[01:09.658]So, I'll sing Hallelujah

[01:14.165]You were an angel in the shape of my mum

[01:19.856]When I fell down you'd be there holding me up

[01:24.114]Spread your wings as you go

[01:26.857]And when God takes you back

[01:29.615]He'll sing, "Hallelujah, you're home"

[01:46.112]I fluffed the pillows, made the beds, stacked the chairs up

[01:52.113]Folded your nightgowns neatly in a case

[01:58.608]John said he'd drive, then put his hand on my cheek

[02:03.116]And wiped a tear from the side of my face

[02:10.110]And I hope that I see the world as you did 'cause I know

[02:15.359]A life with love is a life that's been lived

[02:19.859]So, I'll sing Hallelujah

[02:24.116]You were an angel in the shape of my mum

[02:29.856]When I fell down you'd be there holding me up

[02:34.116]Spread your wings as you go, and when God takes you back

[02:39.864]He'll sing, "Hallelujah, you're home"
