Hello everyone this is afri-tunes week 200
My name is @salvationn, I want to sing a song cover, titled supermarket flowers by Ed Sheeran
I chose this song because supermarket flowers has always hit differently for me. Ed Sheeran knew how to put real emotion into simple words.
I covered "supermarket flowers” because Ed Sheeran’s style inspires me. The way he expresses pain and truth through melody is powerful, and it’s a song I really connect with.
Ed Sheeran is one of the artists who made me love music more. The song carries so much meaning, and I wanted to share my own version of it.
I’ve always admired her ability to turn real feelings into art. Supermarket flowers is one of those songs that stays with you, so I decided to sing it.
I respect Ed Sheeran for how open he was in his music. “supermarket flowers” is meaningful to me, and this cover is just my way of appreciating his art.
His music always carried truth, and “supermarket flowers” is one of my favourites for that reason. I decided to sing it because of the emotion he put into every line.
lyrics
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 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
