(piano)

I took the supermarket flowers from the window sill

I threw the day old tea from the cup

packed up the photo album Mathew 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 your down." but mum there's a tear every time that I blink

Oh I'm in pieces its tearin' 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 holdin' me up,

spread your wings as you go and when God takes you back he'll sing, "Hallelujah, your home"

(piano)

I fluffed the pillows, made the bed, and stacked the chairs up

Folded your nightgown 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

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 where 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 sing, " Hallelujah your home,"

(piano)

oooooooh

Hallelujah your home

(piano)

Hallelujah your home

(piano)

Hallelujah, you where an angel in the shape of my mum

You got to see the person that I've become

spread you wings and I know that when God took you back he said, "Hallelujah your home."

Oh God

I'm such a mess

and the dogs are barking outside have ruined my cover

(laughs)

(sniffs)

I was thinkin' 'bout you, thinkin' 'bout me, thinkin' 'bout us what we gon' be

Opened my eyes it was only just a dream

so I traveled back down that road

Will she come back? no one knows, I realized it was only just a dream

I was at the top

and now its like I'm in the basement number one spot

now you found you a replacement

I swear now that I can't take it

knowing somebody's got my baby

now you ain't around baby I can't think

I should've put it down, should've got that ring

'Cause I can still feel it in the air

See your pretty face run my fingers through your hair, my lover, my life

my baby, my wife

you left me

I'm tied

'cause i know that it just aint right

I was thinking bout you, thinkin' bout me Thinkin' bout us, what we gon' be

Opened my eyes, it was only just a dream

So I traveled back, down that road Will she come back, no one knows

I realized it was only just a dream

If you've ever loved somebody put your hands up

If you've ever loved somebody put your hands up

now they're gone and you wish that you could give them everything

If you've ever loved somebody put your hands up

If you've ever loved somebody put your hands up

now you wish that you could give them every thing

I was thinking bout you, thinkin' bout me Thinkin' bout us, what we gon' be

Opened my eyes, it was only just a dream

oh

traveled back down that road

Will she come- Will she come back? no one knows, it was only just a dream

(piano)

Open my eyes

It was only just a dream

it was only just a dream

(piano)

I know I'm probably better off on my own

Than lovin' a man who didn't know

What he had when he had it

And I see the permanent damage you did to me

Never again, I just wish I could forget when it was magic

I wish it wasn't four am, standing in the mirror Saying to myself, you know you had to do it I know

The bravest thing I ever did was run

Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again

And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man

And I know why we had to say goodbye

Like the back of my hand

And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man

A better man

I know I'm probably better off all alone

Than needing a man who could change his mind at any given minute

And it's always on your terms I'm hanging on every careless word

Hoping it might turn sweet again

Like it was in the beginning

But your jealousy, I can hear it now You're talking down to me,

like I'll always be around You push my love away like it's some kind of loaded gun

Boy, you never thought I'd run

Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again

And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man

And I know why we had to say goodbye Like the back of my hand

And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man

A better man

(piano)

And I hold onto this pride because these days it's all I have

And I gave to you my best and we both know you can't say that

You can't say that

(guitar)

Come up to meet you

Tell you I'm sorry

You don't know how lovely you are

I had to find you

Tell you I need you

Tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets

And ask me your questions

Oh let's go back to the start

Running in circles, coming up tails

Heads on a science apart

Nobody said it was easy

It's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

No one ever said it would be this hard

Oh take me back to the start

I was just guessing at numbers and figures

Pulling your puzzles apart

Questions of science, science and progress

Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me

Come back and haunt me

Oh and I rush to the start

Running in circles, chasing our tails

Coming back as we are

Nobody said it was easy

Oh it's such a shame for us to part

Nobody said it was easy

No one ever said it would be so hard

I'm going back to the start
