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 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 He'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 says 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 Letras de canciones 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 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 From Letras Mania
