Supermarket Flowers Lyrics

Cover art for Supermarket Flowers lyrics by Ed Sheeran

Every once in a while a song will really touch me. Make me feel something I did not know was there. This one did it for me. Not even sure why. My mum is still alive and well. I wasn't close with my grandparents and though it hurt when my dad died, he went fast from a heart attack and never even made the hospital. Nothing like the scene in this song.

Yet I can see with crystal clear clarity everything Ed is singing about on this one. And it makes me feel both sad and happy. Sad that someone is feeling the loss. Happy that they had that much love for someone.

So, this is another one on a list of 4-5 songs that make feel things even if I haven't experienced them or even wanted to feel the loss. Well done Mr. Sheeran. That's song writing excellence that you've achieved with this one.
