Hallelujah

The House of the Rising Sun

It's about my mum who died, When she was alive she would always try and convince me to go for a coffee, and I hardly said yes. And the song is about me trying to convince her to come back from heaven to have a coffee with me. Enjoy :)

Lyrics:

Mum can we grab a coffee
Come on it'll be my treat
I know it's been quite some time now
But I could sure use your company
6 years have gone so fast
And it seems like yesterday
That I was sitting by your bedside
And I watched you drift away
So do you want to grab a coffee
Come on ill save you a seat
I'm sure heaven can spare you for one day
And you can spend that day with me

Mum I sure do miss you
And I think about you everyday
The way you were first up on the dancefloor
Just bopping those blues away
I hope there's a bar in heaven 
And I hope there's plenty of mint
So you can keep sipping those mojitos
They always were your favourite drink
So mum tell another shit joke
The one about the skunk
The way you'd laugh before the punchline
I always thought it was so dumb

Mum can we grab a coffee
Come on it'll be my treat
I know it's been quite some time now
But I could sure use your company
6 years have gone so fast
And it seems like yesterday
That I was sitting by your bedside
And I watched you drift away
So do you want to grab a coffee
Come on ill save you a seat
I'm sure heaven can spare you for one day
And you can spend that day with me

Well one day I will get to heaven
So that coffee will have to wait
Until you lead me up that stairway 
and through those pearly gates
And there we’ll find a table
And we can pull up some chairs
And we’ll sit there laughing and drinking coffee

For forever and a day
For forever and a day
