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 lifethat's been loved
Took the get well soon cards and stuffed animals
Poured the old ginger beer down the sink
Dad always told medon't you cry whenyou're down
But mumthere's a tear every time that I blink
OhI'm in piecesit's tearing me up but I know
A heartthat's broke is a heartthat's been loved
SoI'll sing Hallelujah
You were an angel in the shape of my mum
When I fell downyou'd be there holding me up
Spread your wings as you go
And when God takes you back
He'll say Hallelujahyou're home
I fluffed the pillows made the beds stacked the chairs up
Folded your nightgowns neatly in a case
John sayshe'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 lifethat's been lived
SoI'll sing Hallelujah you were an angel in the shape of my mum
When I fell downyou'd be there holding me up
Spread your wings as you go when God takes you back
He'll say Hallelujahyou'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 Hallelujahyou're home
